I've got that going too now, thanks; once using TwinView, and again using two X screens (in the latter case, KDE displays a separate toolbar on the bottom of each one, which is cool). Actually what I really wanted was to bind a second keyboard and mouse (USB) to the second screen, so I'd have two completely independent X sessions, with separate xdm logins. But I don't think I'll be able to get that to work without having a separate card and a separate X server process; X doesn't seem to allow multiple 'ServerLayout' sections to be active concurrently. But my machine does have one spare AGP slot as well as one PCI slot, so I might go down that route. Best wishes, Brian. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
