- Subject: X windows behavior
Hi,
I use Cygwin/X on a laptop using a docking station (with the external
monitor the primary display). Cygwin behaves very nasty in two ways:
1.) When two monitors are connected, new windows always open on the
secondary monitor. I have to move all of them manually back to my
primary monitor :( Is there a way to avoid this?
2.) When not docked, the secondary monitor seems to be used
"implicitely": Some new windows are not visible. Then I realize they are
"hidden" and I can (manually) drag them back to the main monitor. Also,
the "Exiting Cygwin/X"? dialog seems to be opened in an invisible,
virtual area: I just do not see this dialog. Only when I dock the next
time, I see that this windows actually pops up in the second monitor.
Thanks,
Luke
