Subject: [DNG] XFCE in Beowulf confuses left and right
Heyho,

I have setup a Desktop with Beowulf and XFCE. The install was done with
only one Monitor (Acer 24" HDMI)

I put on a other Monitor (Acer 20" VGA) and yes i get "Figure 3.
Configure new displays dialog." (*) In this display dialog i see the
first "confuses of left and right" The 20" stands *left* from 24" (for
medical reasons i need it) I drag and drop the Icons to te right places,
how my monitors are positioned. I set 24" as default. And XFCE use the
20" as default?! 24" shows only the default XFCE Background. (***)

"if i want to reach the monitor left with the mouse i have to move the
mouse to the right."

Although, the 24" is the *default* Monitor XFCE give me the Menu and
other Desktop Items on the small one 20" ?? E.g. open Thunar ....

I *disable* the Small on 20", and the Monitor Icon for the 20" goes
automatically to the right side. See screenshot (**)

I make this settings as a "normal user" non root privileges. (***)

what can I do to make this program do what I want?

Thank you in advance and have a nice weekend

Michael
