Hello!
I recently started to use my tv as a second monitor for my computer. You know... to watch movies and stuff. Everything works fine... i get another desktop and i can change focus between monitor and tv (by moving cursor to right edge). When starting KDE it starts two kdesktops, two kwins, two kickers etc... you know... the usual.

Now i would like to tweak it a bit. I'd like to somehow hide from KDE (only KDE not X) that i have the other monitor. That way when starting the KDE (from kdm, from startx... anywhere), it wouldn't start anything on the other screen. No window manager no desktops, absolutely nothing. Exactly like when kdm is on my monitor, and there's nothing open on the tv-screen (that doesn't mean i can't change the cursor between the screens of course). I installed icewm, and it does exactly what i want. It opens absolutely nothing on the other screen on startup (even the cursor changes to that black cross when moving it to tv screen ). The only thing is... icewm isn't KDE .

So in a nutshell: is there a way not to let kde know i have another screen, so it won't open a thing on the other screen on startup?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Why i want this? Because i use the tv only to watch videos in a full screen mode, i really don't need window manager or panel or anything but a xine on the other screen (i can open it with `DISPLAY=:0.1 xine -f`). And since i have some minor issues with kde using 2 desktops (performance (slow computer) etc... don't want to bore you with the details), i figured: why the heck it should start that KDE stuff in the first place. I've looked all over the internet and configuration files for solution, but i guess it's not all that usual request
