I set up my netbook's X Window System to work in a multi-headed fashion with 2 monitors, one LVDS (LCD Laptop Panel - 1024x600) and one external VGA (CRT - 1280x1024). Both physical screens are in one logical X screen (localhost:0.0) and LVDS display is at right of VGA display. My window manager is StumpWM and it assign one Frame to each display. I run an Emacs server frame in the larger screen and a client frame in the other. However there is a problem with the mode-line in both Emacs frames. When the last text line in a window should be partially covered by mode-line, the text line is drawn over mode-line. This don't happens if mode-line covers completely last window line. The following Emacs-lisp expressions _don't_ force Emacs to redraw the mode-line in a way that fix the garbage: (redraw-display) (redraw-frame (selected-frame)) (redraw-modeline) Nevertheless, "xrefresh" command and StumpWM's "redisplay" command does the job. One interesting thing is that if I start X11 with the VGA external screen _disconnected_, everything is fine. I wonder if it is a Emacs problem or a StumpWM problem in inform to Emacs the total application dimensions or something like that. Anyone has experienced this? Any idea about problem's origin or a fix solution?
