Yes, it /should/ =). It works fine for me, fwiw. There is still at
least 1 bug related to adding/removing monitors while Stump is running
that causes it to crash, I believe, but I had a hard time figuring it
out and haven't run into it in a long time.

Hm, weird. Try evaling this with the "eval" command, or through
"stumpish" - you probably need to use the stumpwm package:
;; use stumpwm package
(in-package :stumpwm)
;; list the heads that stumpwm knows about
(screen-heads (current-screen))
You should get a list of frame structs (StumpWM models heads as
frames), one for each monitor you have, if everything is working. In
your case, you probably just have 1 element so the output looks like:
"(#S(frame 0 NIL 0 0 2720 1024))", or so.
And what's the output of just running "xrandr"?
