Hi,
I'm having serious problems with Xfce 4.8 pre1 when using two screens.
The small screen is the display of my laptop, which is cloned to my new
24" display.

LVDS1 connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
261mm x 163mm
1280x800 60.0*+ 50.1
1024x768 60.0
800x600 60.3 56.2
640x480 59.9

DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
Problems:
I have two wallpapers on my large screen, one is the full 1920x1080 and
the other one the 1280x800 of the laptop: Screenshot

When pressing ALT+TAB I get two taskswitcher dialogs on each screen.

Are these different problems or is to root something deeper in the X
server?
