In addition to those sleeps, we are using viewer 2.1 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vmware-view-client/2.1.0-0ubuntu0.12.10 We are using thinstation in a kiosk type mode in xfce4 where the view client and xfce4 are the only AUTOSTART sessions. After any logoff or disconnect of the view client, the view client restarts (thats the --once switch) and this is the only time any of these sleeps are noticeable. The missing second monitor seemed to be so transient and random that we didnt try to debug it. I have no idea about the mouse. Rip Van Winkle? Donald Smithers <a.p...@gm...> wrote: We noticed a similar issue with the second monitor. It was sporadic and seemed to be related to both the timing of starting the view client and which monitor your mouse cursor was on. We have had great success getting it to run on both monitors consistently by adding a few sleeps here and there. Likewise, we had to add some sleeps to get the usb redirection to work consistently: edits to ./etc/init.d/vmviewpcoip.init #! /bin/sh vmware-usbarbitrator & sleep 10 vmware-view-usbd & sleep 10 edits to ./etc/cmd/vmviewpcoip.fullscreen:CMD_FULLSCREEN="sleep 10 && vmware-view --allmonitors --nomenubar --once" edits to ./etc/vmviewpcoip.functions #!/bin/sh # Functions vdi_menu () { sleep 5 On Wed, Dec 18, 2013 at 7:49 AM, Oliver Weinmann < oli...@te...> wrote: > Hi, > > > > I installed latest thinstation 5.1 and managed to get vmviewpcoip to work > on a dual screen setup.
