Before I start mucking about with things, I note that X.Org 7.2.0 supports autoconfiguration meaning that "in most cases"[1], the X server should be able to start without an xorg.conf file.
Are the packages in Factory set up to do this and will using the nvidia driver break it? Also, 7.3 offers output hotplug[2], do the packages in xorg73 on the build service support this and does this result in being able to use the external VGA on my notebook as an independent display like I could in other popular OSs?[3] [1] http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/Releases/7.2 [2] http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/Releases/7.3 [3] By which I mean my panels don't span both displays, [XGK]DM appears on the built-in display even when an external monitor is connected but I can use the external display as "monitor 2" for displaying OOo Impress presentations. -- James Ogley [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://usr-local-bin.org GNOME for openSUSE: http://software.opensuse.org/download/GNOME:/ Help end poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/in --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
