Hi Xusheng,
the trick I learned is to "clone" graphic card. In xorg.conf you'll have
two nearly identical sections for one graphic card.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "ati"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "M22 [Radeon Mobility M300]"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 0
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card1"
Driver "ati"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "M22 [Radeon Mobility M300]"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 1
EndSection
Notice those "Screen" parameters. Then, you can create the configuration
as if you have two cards each connected to one monitor.
Regards,
Milan Cermak
