Re: [xmonad] Multiple Screens

That is what I am looking for but I just can seem to figure out how to configure it to work. Like what do I need to add and where. Best Regards Christian

I am trying to get my 3 monitor setup to work with independent screens, I am also trying to have the xmobar to show on every screen that I got. How should I go about getting it to work?

What do you mean by "independent screens"? Are you talking about XMonad.Layout.IndependentScreens or your physical monitors?

As long as the X11 Haskell module was compiled with Xinerama support then multiple monitor support works out of the box. The default behavior is to allow each monitor to display a workspace independent of what the other monitors are displaying.

XMonad.Layout.IndependentScreens allows you to change that behavior to match that of dwm's.

As for three copies of xmobar, I believe you just need three configuration files specifying where each bar should be displayed and then start three copies.
