This ServerLayout has three (3) screens associated with it. These screens are accessed through
the 0.0, 0.1 and 0.2 displays. The first screen is associated with the Screen 0-1 section and is
the anchor screen (at location 0, 0). The second screen is associated with the Screen 0-2 section
and its screen coordinates are to the right of the first screen. The third screen is associated with
the Screen 1-1 section and its screen coordinates are to the right of the second screen.
Messages
Xserver messages are typically logged to /var/X11/Xserver/logs. The two files that contain
the messages are:
/var/X11/Xserver/logs/Xf86.*.log
/var/X11/Xserver/logs/Xstartup.*.log
Where * is the display instance of the Xserver, which is usually 0. The Xstartup.*.log file
contains messages from the X loader. The Xf86.*.log file contains messages from the Xf86
Xserver. The Xf86.*.log file is the file that should be checked first, should problems arise.
