Hmm. Booting windows natively would require some effort, so I'll just
take your word for it. FWIW, it's a feature of the XFree86 driver that
I'd very much like to see :-)

Right. But that's not what I meant. I want to have *different* things
displayed on the two monitors, not the same thing. In particular, it
would be nice to display slides on the projector and speaker notes on
the LCD.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
