      This is my setup, I've got two mice. A logitech mouse and a MouseRemote
    remote control. A GeForce 4 ti 4200 graphics card, with a digital flat panel
    connected to the DVI port and a TV connected to the SVIDEO port. The first
    screen has 1280x1024, but the brooktree processor on the card has max
    1024x768 for the TV. I want to be able to show DVD on the TV, while still
    maintaining my desktop on the first screen. This excludes the possibility of
    a cloned screen, or twinview, as that would limit my desktop to the same
    resolution for both devices. So far, I got this working ... I have two X
    displays, the first display is COMPUTER:0.0 and the second is COMPUTER:0.1,
    so far so good. This is the server layout:

    Section "ServerLayout"
      Identifier "Layout[all]"
      InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard"
      InputDevice "Mouse[2]" "CorePointer"
      InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "AlwaysCore"
      Option "Clone" "off"
      Option "Xinerama" "off"
      Screen 0 "Screen[0]"
      Screen 1 "Screen[1]"
    EndSection

      Now, the tricky part ... the mouse pointer always displays on display :0.0
    and never on :0.1, which is where I'd like to see it so that I can use the
    mouseremote mouse functions on it. Anyone have any ideas on how to
    accomplish this, I've googled a lot but without any success.
