gemwin has no method "display" like pdp? is there a way to create the window on the second head (0.1) in gem? nothing in the mailing-list archive (gem + display)...
You can set the DISPLAY environment variable to :0.1 before starting the program (eg, 'set DISPLAY=:0.1', or 'export DISPLAY=0.1', or similar, depending on your shell)
Nick, it would send all PD windows to the second head. What Patrick want is to send only the GEM window to the second head. A common problem is that the second head is usually not accelerated, but there's seem to be a patch for some Xfree drivers that allows accelerated openGL on the second head.
a
~$ DISPLAY=:0.1; pd -guicmd "DISPLAY=:0.0; /usr/local/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui" -lib Gem
works for me. though I don't think a message to gemwin would be a bad idea...
