-Current with Robbie's latest Xfce4 build, running almost flawlessly on my ThinkPad W540 and Lenovo Ultra Dock.

Only problem that I have, it's not related to Robbie's build, is when my monitors go to sleep, sometimes when I wake them up, I am not able to type in my password on the lock screen. I tested it with Arch and Manjaro, same results.

Warning, Large pic..........

That is a unique and interesting layout (nice look too) I still can't quite figure out. Is it two monitors of different sizes?... and if so, how is it seamless?

Here is my final Xfce setup. This is how it will likely stay for as long as I use 4.14.

Thanks to Paulo2 for making me look at rlworkman's Xfce SlackBuilds which led me to the patches to make the Greybird theme look right.

Theme: https://github.com/shimmerproject/Greybird (requires sassc)
Icons: http://ppa.launchpad.net/tiheum/equi...e_1.3.1.tar.gz

Thanks! ThinkPad W540 with 1920x1080 resolution and a 32 in. Samsung monitor running at 3840x2160 via my Ultra Dock. Bumblebee-Slackbuilds running with zero issues.

So whatever screenshot app you use just blends and corrects for size? Nice.

Sorry for dumb questions. I rarely use a laptop anymore and haven't used multiple monitors since CRTs.

Xfce built-in Screenshot app, that's it.

Slackware and Fluxbox--all the eye candy you could ask for.

It's amazing what a camera can do from a moving vehicle. This was taken in the Norwegian mountains yesterday.

Been trying various wm's the last couple weeks, and been playing with various styles on `fvwm` this weekend. Here is my latest screenshot of fvwm using base16-circus:

My father's from a place like that, in the far west. Not as cold but every bit as desolate. It's funny though; when you're there it's the cities and towns that feel isolated.
