Hi, It should be quite easy to setup but surprisingly I am strugling to setup a dual head system on Ubuntu 5.04. On the same machine Win XP does that beautifully. So it is definitely possible. I have googled a lot and I couldn't find anything wrong with my configuration.
Display card is nVidia Corporation NV17GL [Quadro4200/400 NVS]. It is a PCI card (and not AGP) with two outputs one DVI and one VGA. I have a DVI-to-VGA converter attached to the DVI output as my TFTs only supports VGA. Now, when the system boots up I see the same output in both the monitors, but when the login screen comes up, it only comes up on one monitor. I have tried both with the "nv" driver and "nvidia" driver in xorg.conf file. With the former atleast I was seeing some strange colored lines but with the later the second monitor just goes into sleep mode (as it does when there is no signal). I have uploaded my xorg.conf file here http://www.geocities.com/ajitabhpandey/xorg.conf.txt Any help will be appreciated. Cheers.
