Hello All,
I am using xorg Server 1.20.14 with X protocol version 11, revision 0.
I have a laptop that has a monitor connected to it. The laptop monitor
is 1366x768 and the external monitor has 1440x900 resolution.
I am using TWM.
Based on xrandr output, there is only one screen, screen 0. The laptop
monitor has geometry 1366x768+0+0 and the external monitor has
geometry 1440x900+1366+0.
Is it possible using xlib to get the geometry or positions of these
screens and maybe open x application windows on one of these monitors?
Is it possible to address individual monitors with :0.0 and :0.1? How?
My xrandr output is given below.
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2806 x 900, maximum 16384 x 16384
eDP-1 connected primary 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x
axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm
1366x768 60.02*+
... clipped rest of resolutions.
HDMI-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VGA-1 connected 1440x900+1366+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 410mm x 256mm
1440x900 59.89*+ 74.98
-- clipped rest of resolutions
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
