Howdy,

I'm evaluating vmware-server and would like full screen
mode to go to just one of my monitors instead of being
centered across both monitors.

If it helps, I'm running twinview 3200x1280 and ~x86.


TIA,
Roy

This seems to be driver-dependent.  Since you say "twinview", I presume 
you're using the nvidia driver, which (as far as I know) can't do that.

I use a Matrox G400 with their proprietary driver, and it does behave 
the way you want it to (but has other problems).

Cheers -d

Thank you.  That's what I was thinking.

Have fun,
