by hi.... i too am having some problems getting x and xfree to run 2 monitors
correctly.... i have read through many of the previous posts and done
extensive searches on google, which have helped immensely getting me to
where i'm at now.
i am running a geforce2MX 400 and have installed the latest drivers and
kernel modules.... i have two monitors and screens set up in my XF86Config-4
file but when i load X only one monitor turns on.
Could it be a bad port on my video card... anyway i'll post my config file
and if anybody isn't too sick of going through them i would appreciate any
help...
sorry if i forgot to post some relevant info, i am rather new to this stuff
and posting on news groups.
also have tried with and without some of the modules loaded and seems to
make no difference... and with and without xinerama
thanks,
reid
