Is TwinView supported by the Quadro4 900XGL card? I am using the nvidia
driver I downloaded from the nvidia website. It works fine on one
screen, but I still cant get both monitors to work.
The second one just has a bunch
of lines.
Thanks again for any information.
Here is my current XF86Config-4 file with TwinView:
