Dang, it's been a really long time since I messed with it. The man page suggests 'Option "Dualhead" "true"' needs Virtual. Maybe two monitor sections and only one screen section with 'Virtual 3840 x 1200', (or 1920 x 2400 for top and bottom) or ditch the "Dualhead" option if using Xinerama extension, but I don't honestly know if you can use both outputs with the nv driver that way. Playing with an Nvidia card is something I've been meaning to do for a couple of years now and I have just never gotten around to it. Whatever the final solution is, please replace the example in the book, or post it so I can. -- DJ Lucas -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content, and is believed to be clean. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
