Running VNC fullscreen with multiple monitors
monitors, vnc
Solution
I am using TigerVNC 1.7.1 (32 bit).
Start viewer.
Press F8
Selection Options.
Select screens tab.
Check/Uncheck Enable full screen mode over all monitors.
Problem
I'm connecting to a remote system using VNC (tigervnc-1.1.0 on client, RealVNC-4.1.2 on server). The client system has two monitors using Nvidia twinview, with an effective resolution of 3200x1200. When I tell vncviewer to use fullscreen, the remote system window (1600x1200) is centered across both monitors with large black spaces on both sides. I also tried running Xinerama instead of twinview on the client system, but this doesn't make any difference. Is there any way to run vncviewer in fullscreen mode, without the VNC frame, but restrict it a single monitor?
