[Dxbase] DXbase screen

Mon Nov 30 15:03:47 EST 2009

I seem to remember that DXB only remembers its location in relation to
screen one in a multi-screen environment. The easiest thing to do is switch
your cables in the back so the bottom screen is screen 1, then it should be
okay. Sri about this type of work-around. Unless I hear diferently, I think
my memory serves correct!
