Re: Multiple monitors with different virtual desktops

["Edmund L. Wong" <bacchuswng yahoo com>]

Actually, I'm trying to be able to view different
virtual desktops on different monitors.  For example,
if Metacity has four virtual desktops and I have two
monitors, it would be nice if I could control those
monitors to view any two virtual desktops.

Also, this would be with only one user, not two.
