Hi THere ...
Re You're trying to get the other half of your desktop to show up on the CRT? YES
I have read ...
http://www.oreillynet.com/linux/blog..._xorgconf.html
.. and changed the "device" section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf to ...
Section "Device"
BoardName "965 GME/GLE"
BusID "0:2:0"
Driver "intel"
Identifier "Device[0]"
Option "TwinView" "true"
Option "SaXDualHead"
Option "monitor-LVDS" "Monitor[0]"
Option "SaXDualMonitorVendor" "--> VESA"
Option "SaXDualOrientation" "LeftOf"
Option "SaXDualResolution" "1024x768"
Option "SaXDualMode" "Xinerama"
Option "SaXDualHSync" "31-50"
Option "SaXDualMonitorModel" "1024X768@60HZ"
Option "SaXDualVSync" "50-60"
Option "SaXExternal" "Identifier&EXT+DisplaySize&+VendorName&--> VESA+LeftOf&EXT+PreferredMode&1024x768+HorizSync&31-50+ModelName&1
024X768@60HZ+VertRefresh&50-60"
Screen 0
VendorName "Intel"
EndSection
I have also noticed 2 monitor sections ....
Section "Monitor"
DisplaySize 331 207
HorizSync 30-62
Identifier "Monitor[0]"
ModelName "SAMSUNG LCD MONITOR"
Option "DPMS"
VendorName "SEC"
VertRefresh 43-60
UseModes "Modes[0]"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
HorizSync 31-50
Identifier "EXT"
ModelName "1024X768@60HZ"
Option "LeftOf" "EXT"
Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768"
VendorName "--> VESA"
VertRefresh 50-60
EndSection
Has Linux detected the second attached monitor here ?
When I run command 'startx' ...
linux-stevenm:/etc/X11 # startx
xauth: creating new authority file /root/.serverauth.2043
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.
linux-stevenm:/etc/X11 #
What does it all mean ? !
