I'm using an FX5200 which uses two different resolutions for each screen. There's plenty of documentation around dual screens. It's pretty easy to set up too.

I'm using an old Matrox G450 with 2 19" tubes. It works very well for 2D applications (which mine are), but it certainly is not that good for 3D. The open-source driver is stable and very well debugged. Now if only more applications were more Xinerama-aware...

I was wondering if any of you had a dual-head setup and if so what video card were you using? you mean X11 desktop consisting of two monitors? (xinerama) or 2 screens? i made such a things some time ago that one machine has 2 keyboards, two mices and two graphics cards running a-bit-patched XFree86, to make two-user machine. different AGP cards worked as first, but for secondary Matrox were good and tested, many cards doesn't like to work at all. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: "Out of range" starting Xorg on dual display
Garrett Cooper wrote:
Pat,
That's not the actual refresh range for the monitor, it's just the
currently used range.
What you want to do is search for "{maker} {model} horizontal
refresh" in google; the pages which come up are the ones you want to
refer to for your xorg.conf configuration.
If the maker was tremendously foresighted, the information you need
may appear in the small print on the back or bottom of the monitor
itself.
If not, you may find it handy to inscribe the H and V rate ranges
there with a Sharpie marker once you find it. I've been through this
particular annoyance a couple of times now, that's now my standard
practice upon taking a new monitor out of the shipping carton.
Finding the information on the web (or even in the product manual)
is not always easy, and the xorg automated config tools can't always
guess right.

I really don't understand what could be causing a problem, but for what it's worth, the display now connected to the D-SUB has always been more finicky than my other display. They're a ViewSonic vp201 (D-SUB) and Dell 2001fp (DVI).
