Hi, I Have An ATI Radeon 32 MB DDR AGP video card and a PCI nVidia TNT2 M64 32MB video card. I just configured dual-monitoring for Linux (I Run Mandrake 8.0, but if you have a solution that doesn't apply to Mandrake, please say so anyways because maybe it will work). I use the Xinerama Extension because I do not like the idea of having 2 seperate desktops that can't share windows, etc. I would like to be able to use Gnome+Enlightenment with the Xinerama extension. I configured Gnome to run Enlightenment as its window manager already so I have that taken care of. My question is: How can I make the login window (the window that displays right when you Start X Windows) to position itself in the middle of my primary monitor, or my secondary monitor (either one, it doesn't matter)??? I use 2 KDS 17'' monitors at 1024x768. I was talking to a friend, he said that there is a way to configure the login window to be in the middle of the primary monitor because he had done it before, but cannot remember. So can someone please help me out, and I DO NOT want to get rid of the Xinerama extension.....so if that is a solution you are thinking of, that will not work. I Trust that someone will have a solution. THANKS
