3 monitors with Redhat 9 and XF86Config


After editing the XF86Config file many times and having the file 'corrupt' many time (good thing linux fixes it for me) I've finnally got the system too boot with properly with my moded config file but it does not turn on the other monitors. Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this?
