Re: Not able to use the second monitor for the emulated linux (FC6) environment in WindowsXP

I have rewritten your message so that it says what I think you *meant*
to say instead of what you said. Note that "Display" and "Screen" have
particular meanings in X.

I am using [an X client] on my Windows XP [machine] via an [X server]
[called] Xmanager. The Windows machine has dual monitors. The
problem is any [X client] [launched] from the linux [machine] sticks
to the primary [Screen that Xmanager is emulating], returning back [to
it] immediately after being moved to the secondary [Screen].

/usr/bin/xterm -ls -display $DISPLAY

What's DISPLAY set to? Does Xmanager support multiple monitors? Does
Xmanager emulate a Xinerama-type Display in that case, or an old-school
Display with separate Screens? If it emulates separate Screens, you
might want to try "export DISPLAY=hostname:0.1", which is the standard
nomenclature for "Display on hostname, Display 0, Screen 1". This is
where you'll have to RTFM, assuming that this 'Doze program has one.

You might have better luck asking for help wherever problems with this
'Doze program are discussed. This sounds like a problem on the X server
end, not the client end. HTH anyway,
