How to change screen/keyboard focus?

Post by macdonjo »

I'm trying to use the second screen but I can't type in it. The cursor says in the original.

Your description is way too thin on details. This is not Twitter; please describe the problem in full detail. You are sitting in front of your computer, we're not. You got to do a better job of describing the problem, if you really want to get help.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

It was my false assumption was that setting up 2 screens was how I could have 2 separate terminals but apparently you only get 1 and if you need more, you have to use ssh.
