Canonical Starts Work On Mir Multi-Monitor Handling

[monraaf]

Also committed on Tuesday with another revision a new --nested-mode option for running a Mir Display Server in a nested configuration atop an already present Mir process.

Please do your homework. While the commit indeed adds the option the code clearly throws an exception if used because Mir-on-Mir is deliberately not supported yet.

Ericg your message is self-contradictory: if it is X fault, how KDE can fix it as it is still running on X?

kscreen is a workaround for the limitations of X. One of the reasons it took so long to implement something like kscreen is because it is hard to do under X.

Interesting. I'm using a pair of 1080p monitors. What DE are you using?
