I have some troubles when I'm connecting a monitor to my laptop. In normal times everything works fine. However when the monitor is connected I get this result:
On the left hand side screen Ario is the active window, however the inactive windows (like conky and urxvt), which are set to transparent with xfce compositor, are remaining visible in the foreground (you can not click on them but nevertheless very disturbing). On the right hand side screen the window decoration is transparent and remains drawn on the foreground.
Had anyone observed this before? I do not use any xorg.conf. Maybe by creating the xorg.conf can solve this issue?
I also briefly tried compiz. Here everything works fine but compiz takes a lot of ressources. But it shows that the issue is related to the xfce compositor I use...

Is X already started for you? Then you connect the monitor and type the appropriate xrandr command? Or are both monitors already plugged in when you type "startx"?
I have compositing enabled for xfwm4 and
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "true"
EndSection
in my xorg.conf.

Great things come in tar.xz packages.

Well it doesn't make a difference when I plug the display to the computer...
I will try to setup a Xorg.conf and see if it helps.

I configured both monitors in xorg.conf.d (see the wiki page on X) and it works.
However I tested not everything but the most important is that it works for me this way
