I was a little bit too fast concluding that Gnome 2 was to blame. Before
sending this to you I tried icewm, and then it didn't happen. But if I
open the icewm-menu and moves the mouse between the screens, the main
display becomes dark... If I go to console (ctrl+alt+f1) and back, I get
the picture back (untill I move the mouse across screens...)
Extremely weird, but thanks for you reply :)
Best regards,
Stian, still with one screen.
