That should be a piece of cake using the new (and still under development) "XRandR" spec. http://www.x.org/wiki/Projects/XRandR Many of the Linux drivers have added support just within the last few months, so unless you're on the bleeding edge you probably don't have this yet. BTW, there is recent activity on open source drivers for common graphics cards with the "RadeonHD" and "Nouveau" projects.
