Re: X Server and multiple resolutions on laptop

Olivier,

[Not sure if you are subscribed, so cc'ing you.]

Could you send in the command-line that you use to start XWin.exe and 
the /tmp/XWin.log file from an instance where this problem occurs?

I think that the problem is a side-effect of our clipper that we use... 
but I need to know what parameters are being passed to XWin.exe before I 
can confirm that.
