TwinView & Separate Desktops

PsypherPunk · 05-18-2006, 04:03 PM

i've set up TwinView for my Geforce 6600GT and now have two monitors displaying correctly.

However, each monitor is an extension of the single desktop. ie. i have one big desktop stretched over two screens. Is it possible to map each to a different desktop?

On a related note, if i try and run a game it sits squarely in the middle of both monitors. Is there any way to map it to only one monitor?

Do you mean that
you want to assign different displaynumber or screen number?

i think what i need to do is run seperate X sessions on each monitor. However, i've no idea how/whether this can be done.
