Dual 22" widesceen monitors. left is mac mini, right is Fedora. I use synergy+ to share the mac keyboard and Logitech trackball between the systems. Workspaces separate out distractions - 1 is a pair of gnome-terminal sessions with screen running on each and lots of vim. 2 is firefox + vimperator, 3 thunderbird, 4 xchat, 5 for virt-manager and 6 for misc stuff.
I ran xmonad for a while and found I really liked the full-screen orientation, but missed being able to cut and paste from terminals easily, so now its GNOME with everything full-screen. I've re-mapped the keys in Fedora to take advantage of the command key on the mac keyboard, so I can work most of the day without touching the trackball.
- bretthoerner 16y agoWhat does xmonad change about cut/paste?
- nevinera 16y agoI suppose it depends on what terminal you're using, but gnome-terminal at least copies and pastes fine in xmonad - use C-S-c and C-S-v. If you mean without the pointer, please tell me if you have a way to manage that in normal gnome - it's almost the only time I have to use my ball.
