The thing is that i would only want a keyboard shortcut to move the mouse to the other monitor and or have the other monitor as one workspace.
Now i only have the mouse that flies to the next screen and that is not really good with some strategy games.
I would basically only need chat to show on the second monitor.
Is there any easy way to do this? I really wonder how this has totally missed in distros?
It just seems so basic option to have. Only let the mouse cursor to enter second monitor with pressing a key at the same time.
