My old workstation with Xubuntu 12.04 has two independant displays.
Display 1:
framstag at flupp:~: echo $DISPLAY
:0.0
Display 2:
framstag at flupp:~: echo $DISPLAY
:0.1
I can move the X mouse pointer from one display to the other (but no
windows) and I can switch the virtual screens independantly, e.g. on
display 1 is virtual screen 1 and on display 2 is virtual screen 3.
This is what I want!
My new workstation with Xubuntu 16.04 now has two coupled displays. Both
have DISPLAY=:0.0 and I cannot switch the virtual screens independantly.
When I choose another screen with the Workspace Switcher, both displays
are switched together. BAD.
With Settings->Display (xfce4-display-settings) I was not able to
configure the displays independant.
What is the trick?
