It's a workaround and not a fix because a proper fix will have to occur in Mir itself. Mir's "system compositor" mode needs to be enhanced to not reject surfaces that don't select and fit a physical display. So this will only work with a single monitor. And it will only work after we figure out this USC issue: bug 1548210
Once Mir gets fixed, the workaround in Xmir should be reverted. And theoretically we could then have multi-monitor Xmir inside Mir.
OK, here's a quick workaround for Xmir to get things going: /git.launchpad. net/~xmir- team/xorg- server/ +git/xmir/ commit/ ?id=18ee4ec59c1 ab47c857205d6ab bcdc5881ec2f9b
