[ltp] Projected external display truncated.

[ben]

Oops...  lost a keystroke.  The solution was that of Klaus Weidner (on
2004-11-05) and allowed dynamic plugging and unplugging of monitors,
projectors, etc, and looked very cool.

I've just been using a dual-head configuration (non-Xinerama).  When X
hears about 2 monitors on start-up, they are both configured properly
for reasons that I don't pretend to understand.  But it's very cool to
be able to display a presentation to one monitor (DISPLAY=:0.1 if
you're not using Xinerama) and run it from the other (wherein you can
start demos, movies, etc).  Much more versatile than mirroring,
although you have to restart X if you want to share mouse/keyboard
conveniently :(

Perhaps one day this will be handled as smoothly as it is on OSX.
