10.4: Easily use Front Row on a second monitor (TV)
I have an iBook running screen spanning doctor so that I can use the seperate display as a second desktop. I've placed the cscreen in my ~/local/bin folder. When I run the applescript as shown in the article, Front Row starts on my primary monitor and the menubar remains on my primary screen. In the terminal I get this message:

It's not in mine... so I doubt it.2) If you're running tcsh, and that folder was in your path, you might have to run "rehash" to get tcsh to recognize the new command. (type ps... one of the items should show tcsh or bash...) I did the following to install mine

got it, I didn't realize that you had to use the command line, not the finder, to install it (ignorance). I have it working, but is it supposed to revert to having my main monitor as the primary monitor after front row quits or do i need a "quit front row" script that also changes the monitor back?

I agree about reverting the primary display back. I did create a second script with only the display change option and it works but it doesn't return the display arrangement back to normal so I still have to manually change that. I did see on version tracker that the author didn't promise the arrangement will remain the same so I am not sure if there is an easy fix.
