Dual Montors x86config.install


Hello,

i have been trying to do this for a while..

I have a Geforce 5200 card with a DVI port and a normal 15 pin port.... I have my LCD into the DVI and my norma CRT monitor into the 15 pin... In windows i can get the screens to work together.. creating dual monitors... I am having trouble doing it in SuSE..

People told me to edit my x85config.install file... Welll i have done that, but i would like to some that is exprenced to check it and make sure, everything is there i need..

My monitor (BENQ FP71E+ LCD) is plugged into the DVI
My other monitor (HP Pavilion mx70 CRT) is plugged into the 15 pin port....

Does this code look right? am i missing anything..

Code:
