I’ve got an OpenSuse 11.1 box with 4 Nvidia 9600GT’s, with 8 separate X displays configured. All 8 displays come up just fine (not using Xinerama or Twinview, I need them all to be individual displays) running XFCE, however the mouse only works on display :0.0, and does not move across to the other displays (i.e. :0.1, 0.2, etc).
I’ve made a couple of computers like this, and never seen this behavior before (Fedora, Gentoo, etc).
Anyone know how to tell Xorg to allow the mouse to move freely to the other displays? Here’s a copy of my Xorg.conf…
