Re: [wmii] Re: latest changes

I've had some less than expected results. Along the same avenue as you,
the menu on the second screen is blank (and also missing it's border).
However the moment I try to use the menu (MOD+A/MOD+P/etc) the second
screen blanks out completely. Attempting to then close XOrg by either
killing WMII or CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE causes the primary screen to blank,
turn off, and never come back. Recovery at that point pretty much
requires a restart. I'll try to get a core dump from it if it even gets
the chance to produce one...

On a positive note, a few revisions previous, the menu was working
quite happily for me with dual screens opening on whatever monitor I
happened to have focus on. Unfortunately though, I haven't gotten into
the habit of backing up my previous WMII versions for easy re-use.
