Tue Jun 26 21:54:26 MDT 2007 Jason Creighton * Note that SimpleStacking is incompatible with Xinerama It's unclear to me what SimpleStacking is supposed to accomplish, so I'm just going to note that it doesn't work with Xinerama. (Due to assuming that the current workspace is the one being laid out)

Applied. And this is why Tabbed.hs stopped working with Xinerama, as it now uses the simple stacking stuff.

So to use tabbed with Xinerama, you want something that looks like this: defaultLayouts = [ tiled , mirror tiled , tabbed shrinkText defaultTConf ] ie, don't use the "simpleStacking" combinator. I realize that the documentation in Tabbed.hs tells you to do something that won't work, and I realize we need to fix that. I just don't want to change that without first understanding what SimpleStacking is/was supposed to do. (It looks like it's supposed to keep a focus stack of sorts?) David, any input on this would be very much appreciated. Jason Creighton
