Hi,
I have this card, with two monitors at the same resolution with FreeBSD
and Linux (XFree 4.0 and 4.1)
With Solaris you can use XFree or you can patch Solaris 8 and then works.
I have two icewm, one in first monitor and the other one in the other
monitor, without problems.
I don't test it, but I think that if I change this:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 0"
Device "G400_1"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
Device "G400_2"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "800x600"
EndSubSection
Then two monitors will have two different resolutions, no?
Tuxracer works fine :-)
