RE: [Plug] Multiple video cards/monitors on one box.


	We had the same problem ... I'll take a look tomorrow at the box at work
and see if I can get you the pertinent config files.

MetroX is what we have on a Red Hat 6.0 box.  We have the 2 monitors
working, but gnome seems to be only partially funtional on the second
monitor.  I am a big Debian fan, but I wish I had some more Red Hat
experience as I started a new job today.  Can someone tell me where to get
gnome to recognize two screens and get them functionaing properly?


When I finally get this working, would anyone be interested in a talk on
Multihead systems?

Thanks,
Chuck
