As suggested by at least one poster, the problem lay with the inability of currently available drivers to correctly handle the new Intel video card/s I was using. After a pause for hardware acquisition I now have an nVidia GeForce 7300 GT. Hardware acceleration is excellent, and with the addition of a few lines to xorg.conf I now have a 2800x1050 screen over two monitors. In summary: nVidia works better (for me) than Intel graphics cards. Changes to xorg.conf: * in Section "Screen" add Option "RenderAccel" "true" * in Section "Device" add Option "TwinView" "on" Option "MetaModes" "1400x1050 1400x1050" Option "TwinViewOrientation" "RightOf"
