Since xineramascreen was originally a linux thing, I had never tried it 
under windows.  However, my full screen needs have been met using, as 
you'd mentioned,  noborders and geometry with gl2 driver, except as I 
had noted earlier.  I'm assuming that I don't need xineramascreen unless 
I want to do a fullscreen display without using noborders & geometry.

On the geometry front, are you saying you've just now changed the limits 
check so I can just get an updated svn, or had that been changed a while 
ago and it should have been working in r28311 ?

thanks,
