JJackel LQ Newbie Registered: Nov 2012 Posts: 1 Rep:	Help getting dual monitors to extend I have been working on a thinclient and cannot seem to get it setup to extend, I have them currently mirrored. With this thin client I dont have access to normal GUI tools like the display tools, everything has to be done command line essentially. I have tried working with xrandr to get it going but I cannot seem to get it to work still. here is a couple of config files you can look at to get an idea of what Im looking at xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/sPrE6cJZ xorg.conf.original-0 http://pastebin.com/Ft2NvZeC
