RE: DISPLAY variable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Okay, I'm back with another question.  If I set this up in the main
XF86Config, won't it try to apply it to all users?  I have multiple
users logging in remotely, and only 1 of them is currently trying to use
dual monitors.  He "accidently" set this before by playing with the
export DISPLAY command and changing the the :0.0 flags around.  However,
he can't remember how he did it.  

Thanks again.

Spanning over dual monitors sounds more like an Xserver configuration,
which
means you should be hacking with the XF86Config file.

The DISPLAY variable just tells your shell what Xserver display to
sends X
apps to.
