I just put a 2nd video card in my Win2K PC so that both of my monitors are
running at 1280x1024x32bpp. The primary is an ATI RADEON 7500 AGP and the
secondary is an ATI AIW 128 PCI. When I run
start XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -multiplemonitors
I get the following in /tmp/XWin.log
winScreenInit - Monitors do not all have same pixel format / display depth.
Using primary display only.
I know they're running the same display depth. What's pixel format? I
also notice in my Device Manager that I have a "Microsoft SMS Mirror
Driver" (this is my work PC).
Relevant packages include: (just ran setup.exe a few minutes ago and let
it update everything)
XFree86-base 4.3.0-1
XFree86-bin 4.3.0-7
XFree86-etc 4.3.0-5
XFree86-fenc 4.2.0-3
XFree86-fnts 4.2.0-3
XFree86-lib 4.3.0-1
XFree86-lib-compat 4.3.0-2
XFree86-startup-scripts 4.2.0-5
XFree86-xserv 4.3.0-22
Any ideas as to why -multiplemonitors isn't working?
