[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi there I've got a question for you. I'm running WindowMaker on XFree86 4.2.0, Matrox G550 on MGA driver, and the dualhead works fine. However, in X, when a window pops it's always centered between the 2 heads, and I always gots to move it to read or to click, everything is centered like my 2 heads were only 1 big head. Is there anything I can do? Also, my wallpaper must be only one big image, let's say each monitor is set to 1280*1024, then is I want my wallpaper not to be stretched and looking weird, I gots to make a 2560*1024 image. One last thing, when I boot my system, nothing appears on the second head, until I startx. Then, when I kill my X session, the second head displays the same thing as the first. Is there a way to control what's displaying in the second head, working in console? Thank you all Simon Beauchesne -- Linux is for people who hate Microsoft. FreeBSD is for people who love UNIX.
