Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

I did exactly this and found as you told... But my point is that the "configure --help" and the normal configure output are both wrong: * the first because seems to imply that, even if no switch is explicitly passed to configure, the two features will be still present because they are the default o...

Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

Thanks darkc, your input was very valuable to pin down the cause of your (our) troubles... The whole thing origins in a rather weird thing: even if the configure from Qt sources says in the help that -xinerama & -xrandr are the default values and that the build process automagically picks up the re...

Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

Kde 4.8.1 twinview multi-monitor support [SOLVED] Hi there, I am proud to tell you that I have my kde 4.8.1 (by MIB) operational with fully multiple-monitor support ( one desktop per monitor ) finally !!! :D It was a problem of QT library which was not compiled with " xrandr " and " xinerama " supp...

Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

Twinview kde 481:

even better, libQt from MIB is NOT linked against xrandr, but it's true with mageia2.

so xinerama (ok maybe deprecated) AND xrandr are NOT enabled with Qt libs on MIB. It could be a pb for twinview, I guess.

Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

Sorry for the delay... I made some research about this issue and finally stumbled upon this message from the main kwin developer: http://osdir.com/ml/kwin/2012-01/msg00091.html If I'm not wrong, that means the xinerama support was completely removed from kwin code base since 26/01/2012 (ie a good b...

Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

this could be the culprit... the strange thing is that in kde 4.5.5 MIB, kde 4.6.5 2011.0 and kde 4.8.0 cooker ldd /usr/bin/kwin|grep -i xinerama (I get nothing) According to the gentoo post, this guy had the same pb and it looks like that the way how kde4 manage multi-monitor has evolved along the...

Twinview : I might have a lead ;) At work I have a desktop running mdv 2010.2 and kde 481 by MIB which have this pb with twinview. Let's call this machine A . I also have a laptop running mageia beta 2 with kde 481 and with no problem with twinview. let's call this machine B . now if I run the foll...

i noticed you have checked "unify outputs" option in KrandrTray. if you uncheck this option something happens? http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=96307&p=201336&hilit=unify+outputs#p201336 Ciao, Luca.

Re: KDE4 4.8.1 > started "public testing" for Mandriva 2010.

There is no "twinview" thing with radeon free drivers, only xorg.conf & randr commands to have a splitted desktop between the two screens... this actually WFM. GvM ok then, could you post which xrandr command do you use to activate twinview on two monitors with different desktop on kde 481 by MIB ?...

Well, there are no relevant errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log file. Anyway and as I mentioned in my previous post, it was working correctly with the same driver and kde 455. The only new part is kde build 481. Also I tried all the possibilities of /etc/X11/xorg.conf configuration file with no success (m...
