Details: PC: ASUS L8400B (Laptop) VGA: S3 Savage/MX (Runs multi monitor in XP) OS: Fedora Core 1 (XFree 4.3.x) External monitor: Hitachi CM751 19" I need to be able to run the LCD of the laptop in 1024x768 and the Hitachi in 1280x1024. I have tried to poke around in XF86Config, and I have tried with s3switch. It is possible to have the same image on either or both monitors. But I need to have different views on the two monitors at different resolutions at the same time. TV-out would be nice too, but not at all necessary. The answer may have been posted before, in that case just point me in the right direction. /bachmand
