« on: September 01, 2007, 12:27:40 pm »
one of the colleague with dualview setup complaint that sfml's opengl examples dont work on second monitor, the visual will turn into black and white on second monitor. the example he has tested are opengl and postfx. the graphics card he used is nvidia 7 series.

On Linux ? If so, I think this is not a bug, just something I need to improve.

I expected such issues with Linux. On Windows, the graphics samples work fine on my two monitors and my nVidia 7800 GT.

If you try any other OpenGL application on your second monitor, does this problem appear again, or is it just SFML ?

I can't see any reason why it would fail, I mean there's nothing related to the monitors setup in the Windows code.

I'll have a look at the code again, and see if I've missed something.
