Does Openbox support multi-screens?

Hopefully this feature can be added to Openbox in the future.

It definitely does. Both via multiple screens or xinerama.

Openbox Dependencies on Feisty

The Feisty .deb package seems to require dependencies with vesions later than those provided by the repos, even after 'sudo aptitude update' + upgrade. Am I failing to understand something here? --Quixcyn 19:01, 11 September 2007 (EDT)

EDIT: Works when the backports repo is uncommented in /etc/apt/sources.list --Quixcyn 13:15, 12 September 2007 (EDT)

Additional Virtual Desktop Grid Information

The following information might be helpful to add to the second FAQ question, "How do I put my desktops into a grid layout instead of a single row?", as it took me a bit of hunting before I figured out all the errors...

To transform the setlayout.c program to an actual program you can use, run the following:

gcc -lX11 setlayout.c
ln a.out setlayout
./setlayout 0 3 2 0
