1. Is anyone aware of any work going on with simultaneous computer conferencing using multiple displays with X? 2. How do you handle the problem which occurs when using multiple display servers on different hosts from the same client. If one of them kills its X-server and the client who does not know about this tries to send something to that display, the client croaks. So the client needs to be able to detect that a display server died so it can stop sending stuff. I tried DestroyNotify, but that didn't work and besides it seems that it was designed for a well-behaved event interaction. As I don't routinely read comp.windows.x, could you please e-mail your response(s) directly to me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Lemkin 301-846-5535 _o Image Processing Section FAX:301-846-5598 O/O________ Lab.
