I've been running Xorg on FreeBSD-5.3-STABLE with a dual-head setup on a Matrox G450 with two video outputs. I'm using Xinerama to unify the displays. This machine gets its /usr/X11R6 (and some other filesystems like /usr/local) over NFS from my main machine. It's been running fine. Recently I did a "make world" from CVS, and probably did some "portupgrade". Now when I run X, ssh into another home box, and run an X application, my window fvwm2 manager displays the frame but no window content. For example, even simple "xclock" just gets its window border drawn (by fvwm2, presumably) but has no clock face -- it's just the bitmap of the window underneath; if I move the border, it continues to display the old window bitmap. To make sure I didn't have an obsolete .conf file, I used "xorgcfg" to create a new file, then started adding stuff to it to create a dual-head setup with Xinerama. I found that when I enabled Xinerama the problem manifested itself. So I returned to my original .conf file, I simply commented out he Xinerama line. Now the remote window contents display properly but of course I've lost the cool Xinerama features. Has something broken, or am I missing something? Thanks.
