SOLVED..Xinerama launch conky on one monitor

I am running openbox with 2 sessions using seperate Xs and xinerama. I was wondering is there a way to run conky on monitor 0 instead of across 0 and 1 monitors?
Here is my conkyrc:
double_buffer yes
no_buffers yes
own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type desktop
own_window_hints undecorate,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
border_margin 1
draw_shades no
gap_x 0
gap_y 0
alignment top_left
update_interval 1
default_color D6D6D6
own_window_colour 202020
use_xft yes
xftfont Snap:pixelsize=10
use_spacer none
minimum_size 1278 12
mpd_host localhost
mpd_port 6600

Nevermind I got it. I took out the gap_x 1 and gap_y 1 values.
Thanks

  • [SOLVED] Xinerama crashing xorg 1.9

    After installing the latest xorg packages (1.9) I can no longer use xinerama when I have two monitors connected.
    I've tried this with several WMs, and none of them want to start with xinerama activa and an external monitor on VGA from my laptop.
    I'm using the latest nvidia binary drivers (not beta) and both monitros work if I disable xinerama, and I can run xinerama if I do not have anything connected to the VGA out.
    Anyone else noticed this and know what to do about it?

  • DUAL MONITOR BUG: One Picture – One Monitor – Different Colors!

    There have been several threads discussing that Photoshop CS4 and OS 10.6. show wrong colors in dual monitor setups.
    The first one to prove this with a screen capture was jb510-LJ0JJQ in August 2009: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2207312#2207312
    Eight months and three OS updates later the problem is still there and makes professional work with more than one monitor a nuisance.
    Here's another actual example: A picture and its 100% identical copy showing different colors on one screen!
    Here's how to repeat it – try this at home ;-)
    1) In the finder make a copy of a rgb picture.
    2) Open one of the two identical pics in photoshop.
    3) Drag it to the other monitor.
    When releasing the mouse button you may see the bug already: the colors will "switch".
    4) To verify this go to system presets - monitors - and change the primary monitor (by dragging the menu bar to the other)
    5) Now open the identical copy you made in step 1) and see the difference!
    Here's a synopsis of suggested workarounds:
    1) disable open GL (which seem to makes no difference on my setup)
    2) click "desaturate monitor colors" but set desaturation to 0 (which prevents visual switching in step 3) (only if openGL is ON) but also leads to a wrong display in step 4+5
    3) make the hardware calibrated monitor your default monitor and strictly avoid changes or dragging pics to the other monitor (which seems to be the only reliable method)
    4) some guys even force both monitors to use the profile of their hardware-calibrated monitor (using color sync) to make sure they see what they should see on at least that one monitor. What a stone-age workaround for the the world's leading imaging program!
    Considering that reliable colors in professional (=multi monitor) settings should be the most basic function of photoshop this mayor malfunction should be solved with CS5! Otherwise we might have to live with it for some more years...
    Have Adobe and Apple realized this bug and on their agenda? Will it be gone with OS 10.6.3? Can anyone explain the reasons for this bad bug? Is there a "officially" recommended workaround?
    Thanks, regards,
    Eric

    There have been several threads dealing with this malfunction. But most faded out in silence or acceptance of the workarounds.

    But man, this is no minor bug! Consistent colors are the by far most important basic function of photoshop. If you cannot rely on the colors in photoshop you can as well use "Preview" and "Word" for print production ;-)
    Carson, how did Apple react to your complaint? What do you mean with "they don't get it". Do they not see it? Or can't they get it right?
    Shall we open a thread at apple forums to point out that it's not the problem of a single user?

  • Can one monitor audio off the eos 70d?

    I'm considerng the EOS 70D for some still and video work. Can one monitor audio off the EOS 70D while recording video?

    Hi chuckcox!
    Thanks for posting.
    There is not a port on the EOS 70D that allows headphones to be connected for monitoring audio.  However, the camera does have an HDMI port, which carries an audio signal.  You can send the HDMI signal to an external monitor that does allow you to connect headphones and monitor the audio.

  • Eye One Monitor with NEC 2690, SpectraView combination?

    Hello,
    I need to equip a new MacPro for my retouching business. I am considering the NEC 2690. I saw the version that comes equipped with the calibration device and SpectraView software. I was wondering if I could use my existing Eye One Monitor calibrator, and purchase the NEC LCD2690WUXI-BK (which is the version without the software and calibrator), and then buy the SpectraView software separately.
    There isn't much price difference ($100) if I go this way, but I have been happy with the results that I get with the Eye One Monitor.
    Does anyone know if the Eye One Monitor that I have is better or worse than the one that would come with the NEC 2690? I think that it is an X-Rite/Eye One unit also.
    I did send the Eye One Monitor to X-Rite for recalibration and a small repair, and I received a brand new unit.
    Thanks,
    John Hill

    I just purchased an NEC 2690. It's being driven by a MacPro.
    Something very strange just happened:
    The resolution of the monitor changed to 1600x1200 (supposed to be 1920x1200.)
    No, this is not an issue of the wrong setting being chosen in System Prefs > Displays. I have 1920x1200 chosen there. It's the monitor itself. Upon start-up, it displays data showing resolution and frequency in the upper right corner. It says "1600x1200." I can confirm this by using the monitor's OSD and going to the info section where it says "1600x1200, 59.9Hz."
    I've used it for about a week at the correct resolution. Any ideas what could have caused this change? And any idea how to get it back to 1920x1200? (And no, resetting to factory defaults doesn't do it.)
    Thanks in advance.
    Edit - One possibly important fact: This happened near the time that I launched a trial version of ColorEyes Pro (which I didn't get very far with.) Don't know if that's pertinent.

  • Need help with connecting 2 pcs to one monitor, and speakers.

    Getting a new pc in the coming week, and I need to connect my one monitor to 2 pcs. I was looking into geting a KVM switch, but I am going to buy a new keyboard,and mouse. Is there such a thing for just a monitor, and speakers? Or do I have to buy a kvm switch ,and just use the monitor and speakers connectors? Last question, can anyone recommend a reliable kvm switch, if I have to go that route.
    Thanks in advance

    A KVM would be the best option.

  • Ho do I use one monitor for OSX and Windows 8.1 bootcamp

    I am a long time Mac user, but find the fairly recent Apple switch to thunderbolt for monitor input very frustrating.
    For several years I have ran a Mid 2010 IMac 27" and input video from a Mac Mini running Boot Camp Windows 7 using Target Display Mode on the IMac. 
    This worked fine until I upgraded to a Late 2013 27" IMac and discovered that the  IMac has moved to thunderbolt as the input for Target Display Mode.  The new late 2013 27" IMac just will not display native Windows 7 or 8 from a Boot Camp Mac anymore.
    My problem is that I have two business/job related Windows apps that must run on a native windows 7 or 8 platform, and won't function under either Parallels or VMWare Fusion.
    I have tried. 
    And there appears to be no way to get any Windows machine with DVI or Mini Display Port output to drive a late 2013 IMac in Target Display mode.
    So, with great frustration, I have concluded that I need to purchase a non-Apple 27-30" monitor, and drive it with either a Mac Mini, or my Early 2013 15" MacBook Pro retina, running one of the Macs into on of the mini-Display Ports on the monitor and a native Windows 7 or 8 machine into a second mini-display port, switching between the two video inputs.   The Dell 30" monitor seems to get the nod.
    Has anyone found a better solution to switching between OSX and native Windows on one monitor?
    Thanks...

    Hi William,
    I had the same experience in December 2013 and contacted Apple about it. According to Apple it's an issue of Windows with Thunderbolt. Your older iMac from 2010 is using DisplayPort and not Thunderbolt for the Target Display Mode. Note that just the connector looks the same but it's still a different technology. Please further note that the response below does not apply for the new iMac 27" with the 5K display because this iMac does not support Target Display Mode at all, hence can't be used as external display. Of course you can still attach one or two external displays to the iMac 27" 5K.
    Hope this clears things up for you and the others.
    Thanks,
    Martin
    So, here is the important part of the official response from Apple:
    "... The Thunderbolt controller in an iMac is running exclusively in host mode. As such it cannot emulate a device mode Thunderbolt display. Instead it implements a custom Target Display Mode protocol that shares video between two peer to peer machines running with both controllers running in host mode. The "client" side of the driver does not exist on Windows so windows cannot speak to the "server" half in the iMac. There are no plans to implement a client driver for Windows since there is no Thunderbolt SW stack available for Windows. The reason this used to work is that the older iMacs used DisplayPort for Target Display Mode. In this scenario the iMac was able to expose the panel in such a way that it looked exactly like a Display Port Device which Windows does have driver support for. ... "

  • How can I change the resolution of one monitor in a dual monitor set up?

    I'm trying to help someone set up an extended desktop using two monitors connected to a mac mini. One monitor is at the maximum resolution, but the other is not, and thus feels enlarged or zoomed in. I know a higher resolution is possible because the monitor has a button menu that shows a higher resolution, but it seems to be disabled - as I cannot select the maximum.
    Also can't seem to change it under the mac mini's display preferences.
    Any suggestions? We would really appreciate it.

    This model simultaneously supports 1920x1200 on an HDMI or a DVI display (using the included HDMI-to-DVI adapter) and2560x1600 on a Thunderbolt or Mini DisplayPort display
    The HDMI connection does not support higher than 1920X1200
    What resolutions are running now and on what connection and what is the grayed-out resolution?

  • How do I use dual displays to have a full screen app on one monitor and another full screen app or the desktop on the other?

    How do I use dual displays to have a full screen app on one monitor and another full screen app or the desktop on the other?
    I want to have my itunes visualizer on my TV which is connected via HDMI adapter, and still have access to full screen itunes and my desktop on the main display.
    Any suggestions?  App downloads that can do this?  Please let me know.

    You can't do it.  This has been an issue since Lion.

  • How to transfer from one mini to another without messing up either one. I have one monitor and two minis. I do have a firewire cable but don't want a complete transfer, just specific files.

    I have done a complete fire wire transfer before but I don't want to do that. I only want to transfer certain files and leave the existing and new minis in tact otherwise. I am sure I can transfer just files. My question mostly is: I only have one monitor but will have two minis that are hooked up. Can this be done without seeing the other computer contents? I hope that makes sense. The existing mini is 10.5.8 and the new one is 10.6.

    You can start one mac up in target disk mode, get file sharing set up and then disconnect the monitor.  Monitor ports are very tolerant of connecting and disconnecting with the computer on.
    Switch the monitor to the other computer.  Start up, connect the firewire cable (after the computer has booted) and set up file sharing on that computer.  You can see the other computer's contents without controlling the other computer's mouse and/or keyboard.
    If the other computer's hard drive does not automatically show up, go to network settings and verify those settings as well.  That should not be necessary but ethernet would give you a second option for file transfers.

  • My Eye Dropper STILL does not work in CS5 while using Lion with one monitor. How can i fix this?!?

    Hello everyone!
    This is my first post because i have grown very disgruntled at the fact that my eye dropper does not work my Premiere CS5. I would use the Ultra Key a lot but now I obviously can not really use it too well because of no eye dropper. I saw that this problem existed after the Lion update but this really should have been fixed by now. I am using only one monitor also. Is there a way to fix this or is this still known to be broken? I paid good money for CS5 and would be very upset if the only way around this is to pay MORE money to upgrade to CS5.5. Thanks.

    Thanks for the response Stephen! I find this very bad on Adobe's part though if they do not feel obligated to fix CS5 for Lion. Eye dropper is a major part of Premiere and i am going to be very dissapointed if they do not fix that. With the amount of money the Suite costs, they definitly should make sure it runs well for quite a few years. I would expect a copy of CS4 to be able to work too. If they do not fix CS5 all because the OS has changed basically tells me that every 2 years or so, they stop caring about their product.
    Sorry i sound so bitter about this but it has really hurt my workflow. Ultra key is great and something that FCP does not have so it has the edge in that respect, but now i can not even properly use it. I have to go into After Effects with the same clip, use that eyedropper to get the correct color # and then copy and paste the # into Ultra Key in Premiere which is very very annoying and slows down my system quite a bit.
    So basically, they are probably not going to ever fix this? Thanks again

  • How do I get Firefox to open on both of my monitors in separate windows with different start pages (my stock portfolio on one monitor, google on another) on Mac?

    I want to be able to set the homepage for Firefox so that it will open in two windows (one on both of my monitors) with two separate pages (one monitor opens with Page A, the other monitor opens with Page B)

    Exactly what Bob Levine said. Can confirm, running a two monitor display here.

  • G4 upgrade now one monitor won't power on

    ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED! I'VE BEEN UP ALL NIGHT!!
    I put in 2GB of RAM today along with a super combo (DVD, CDRW) drive. I tested the machine with a single monitor at work, it was fine. When I got it home and hooked it up to my dual monitors, only one monitor turns on. The other one won't do anything. Now power to it at all. I tried plugging it directly into the wall, still nothing.
    I switched the cords and everything and the same monitor (the one on left) turns on, but the one on the right doesn't. Can anyone help? When I detect displays, it shows I have two monitors, but I am only getting power to one. I also reset the PRAM, still did not power up my monitor.
    Is there a workaround here or should I send it back? It's under warranty and everything. GoVideo Dual 19" monitors. Has anyone dealt with sending something back to Wal-Mart? Is it fast to get the replacement?
