Hi,

I'm testing a couple of machines with a 4 screeen (phisical screens) and
a Matrox g200 on RH 8.0. The 4 screens are set up as follows:
-------------
|       |       |
|3      |4      |
-------------
|       |       |
|1      |2      |
-------------

I have downloaded and installed the Latest Linux drivers from the Matrox
site. What i'm trying to do is the following:
I have HOST1. All working properly. HOST2, same hardware same OS. What i
do is just transfer the xf86config file from HOST1 to HOST2. Then edit
the bus id ( in the Section "Device"). After that i start X on HOST2 and
the whole screen layout is different. When i edit the part in the
Section "ServerLayout" and change the screenlayout (Screen "Screen 1"
LeftOf "Screen 2") it is ok again. Sometimes i'm busy with it for 10
minutes but in the worst case it is 2 hours to get it ok. 
Also there is no logical part about the screenlayout. When you are
drawing the screenlayout on a pice of paper and you think it is good,
you start X and then suddenly the left upper screen is the right upper
screen.
I there a logical way to automate the editing of the xf86 config file
and is there a logical way to edit the screenlayout?

Kind Regards,

FoRMaTC
