Folks,
My setup:
Ubuntu 14.4 + Openbox
nVidia card
HDMI output from nVidia goes to TV
VGA output from nVidia goes to a VGA monitor
From nvidia control panel, I have set up X-Screen 0 and X-Screen 1.
The system works as expected. I can watch movies on X-Screen 1 while working on monitor.
The problem is with the desktop icons.
Anytime, I create a .desktop file under ~/Desktop directory, the same icon shows up on both the monitors.
I don't recall seeing this problem under 13.4 OS.
I prefer that the icons stay only on the monitor (X-Screen 0) and not on TV. Is there a way to fix this? Perhaps I can add a new entry in the .desktop file.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards,
Peter
