hey guys, Thanks,
Tried the suggestions about the ServerLayout section, I'd had
similar entries in there before, still nothing happening to the other
monitor when I launch X, no errors seem to be generated either. Is
there something to do to get the secondary graphics card & monitor
working generally under Linux first?
Here's my server layout section:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Screen 0 "Screen 1" 0 0
Screen 1 "Screen 2" RightOf "Screen 1"
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Mouse2" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Thanks,
George
