First question should be, can this be done? I had 2 Nvidia videos cards, running 2 monitors, with X spanning both monitors. One card died and I replaced it with a Radeon video card. Can I still span X across the two monitors? Does the make/model of the cards matter at all? If the answer

[gentoo-user] finding out current softlevel

2010-08-10 Thread linux
Hello, I was wondering whether there is some way to find out the current running softlevel (which I gave to the kernel line in grub's menu.lst), for example to start another window manager depending on the softlevel or whatever other possible solutions? Maybe in a variable like $SOFTLEVEL ?

At least you can get the complete kernel line from /proc/cmdline. Strangely, my /proc/cmdline is empty; could I have forgotten some kernel module or option? If you like, put something like this into your .bashrc: # get boot parameters: SOFTLEVEL=$( /proc/cmdline ) # strip from left all
