my two cents.... i'm using xorg with an nvidia graphics card and driver under debian using the "TwinView" option in my xorg file (google or other search on twinview to get all options: svideo, NTSC or PAL, etc). basically this allows me to use my laptop display to run my patches and the display to the LeftOf (or RightOf - both twinview options) to be my Gem window at full screen so people don't see my patches.
for me this works out very well. your milage my vary.
hope this gives you a few starting points to search though :-)
best, p

Don't worry about bad English, your communication skills are fine. Quite a few other Pd-listers aren't native English speakers either.
-on my laptop, i've got an auxiliary video out (on the side there are a S-Video plug and a standard computer screen plug), and i would like to know if there's a way to send the Gemwin content on it (to display on a TV, for example). I think they're really separated displays since I manage to have an extended desktop on windows 2000 (glups !) : I can pass a window from the laptop screen to an external monitor (a TV or a computer screen). I tried to configure Xfree as I had readen on forums and howtos but I never got anything else that a grey screen. I heard about Xorg, is it better ?Try using the message [fullscreen 2(. It should pop up on your other window. I'm on OS X, so I can't advise you on the debian particulars, however. But most of the hardcore Pd users are quite familiar with that distro, so you're bound to find help here.
