But why would you want identical images? Google Xinerama. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo (yeah it's Ubuntu), for how to get a B-I-I-I-I-G two-screen-wide desktop. Note that the specific numbers (resolution and vert and horiz frequencies) will depend on your monitors and card. Do *NOT* copy them verbatim. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
