I've found that the best way to run dual monitors with an nVidia card is to use the TwinView feature of the nVidia (non-free) drivers. I've run my dual monitors this way for a few years and it works flawlessly. Yes, I know, I'm a terrible person for contaminating my kernel with proprietary drivers, but it makes my setup work as sexily as it should, so I do it. -- Adam Wolfe Gordon _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
