[Newbie]which X?

Re: [Newbie]screen resolution

Thank you, that seems to be having an effect. A new problem has shown itself, and I'm going to have to try and swap monitors with other computers heremy monitor1 is an old Compudyne, and I'm having trouble getting the exact requirements for it. Re: enlightenment: I like it too. I just

[Newbie]multiple display cards

I am using Red Hat 7.1 with whatever version of X that comes with it. I just changed from using the video built-into the motherboard to using a pair of Matrox Millennium II cardsexcept that only one of the matrox cards is working, and nothing in the install made reference to the second card.
