Help Needed For Multiple Monitors

[Geordy Korte]

Hi,

Try restarting the X server.  If you start the X server and after that
you switch on the secondi screen in windows then you will get these
white screens.  Samething happens if you resize your screen.  Should
that not help then here is my X server startup:

%RUN% XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error

Cheers,

Geordy
