The connector must be good because xrandr sees the external monitor and can probe its DVID just fine. >Or you could drop the xrandr method and drop back to manually >configuring xorg.conf >http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/X.Org/Dual_Monitors/Nvidia I have already tried all the suggestions on the Gentoo site, except for adding both monitors to xorg.conf. At this time my xorg.conf has no monitor section at all. What if I add monitor sections for the two monitors, and then later boot without the external monitor (the usual case for me)? Thanks for the suggestions. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
