I recommend getting rid of xinerama. xrandr can handle multiple monitors |
| 33 |
just fine. If you are on KDE, try installing kde-base/kephal and use no |
| 34 |
xorg.conf. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
I still have the xinerama USE flag enabled globally as it adds |
| 37 |
multi-monitor awareness to some applications. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
With that, fullscreen applications work for me. Some still deactivate |
| 40 |
the second display or change the resolution but otherwise it works just |
| 41 |
fine. |
