So since I have a recollection of needing the latest src from the head, I tried to build the latest xmonad from darcs and hit this error, Yep, you need to update X11-extras first.. ah, will do Hi Don,
Having just updated from the latest of X11-extras and xmonad I've discovered my xinerama setup is now being treated as a single window ... any debugging I can do to try and work out why this is happening ?
Very likely you didn't autoreconf the X11-extras directory?
Since you'd be using darcs X11-extras, which doesn't have a pre-generated ./configure, that would lead to ./configure not being generated, and Xinerama not being detected.
Check the X11-extras README on "if you are building from darcs"
I went back and called autoreconf, then wiped out the contents of the dist/ dirs inside the repos (both for xmonad and X11-extras). The I configure, built, and installed X11-extras and xmonad. Same behaviour again, so I tried wiping out the install in /usr/local/lib/X11-extras and did it all again, still same "single workspace across two screens" thing going on ...
