Hi!

I have now my multihead configuration running, so i have also two different displays.
My question is: i'm now in the console on display :0.0, how can i start application on display :0.1 without changing to this display and starting it from there?


Thank you very muvh in advance

Andrei

Most applications should allow you to provide a display as a command line argument, for example totem --display=:0.1


The switch is normally -display :0.1 for older apps and --display=:0.1 for GTK+ apps. I don't know what QT uses. Setting the environment variable DISPLAY should also work I think.
