I want to use SLiM for my login manager, I have two monitors though and the SLiM login gets stretched over the two screens. Is there a way to keep it to one screen?
I found a post in this foum http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 23#p356023 but there wasn't a solution posted.
Any help is appreciated.

You didn't look hard enough. There is a Xinerama patch for SLiM but it has some issues, you can find it and try for your self.
You need to install an RTFM interface.

I'm using twin view, not xinerama, I would really prefer not to switch too. I should have said that.

Hmm if i play games on twinview , the game also get streched. Can't you pull of a trick with --DISPLAY $1 or set one of your monitors a Primary .

You could have a look at the theme-folder of slim (i think it's located at /usr/share/slim/themes) and edit your theme, so that the loginbox is moved to 1 screen and nothing is stretched (you will have to change some numbers)

I was just facing that problem and solved it by editing the input_panel_x value to "(screen1Width/2)/screen12Width*100" only. It works perfectly (archlinux-simplyblack-theme).

Just saw this in the other section of the forum

You might want to try that with slim
