The way I chose to go (probably not common) is to set up each display device
as a separate X screen. (see:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors#Non-TwinView)
The plan is to have 2 instances of myth f/e running - one on each display -
and just turn on the one that I am using. I have not actually tested this
yet, but it sounded promising to me :-)
Speaking of which, is there any reason why 2 instances of the frontend can't
run on one system?
