I'd like a copy of it, too; I'm unable to get the second head working. -----Original Message----- From: tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org [mailto:tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Seth C Kruckenberg Sent: Friday, June 28, 2002 11:46 AM To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Subject: Re: [TCLUG] Multihead & GeForce2 Greg, I am currently running mandrake 8.2 and have got a dual monitor geforce4 setup which shouldn't be any different in that they use the same drivers put out by nvidia. The only difference is your onboard video whereas my other card is agp. Anyway, I could just send you a copy of my XF86Config and XF86Config-4 file if you would like to take a look at how to set up the xinerama extensions for a dual monitor setup. That way you could just cut and paste the appropriate monitor modes lines, etc over the ones I have. Maybe that would get you there. The only other thing I would say is that I know on my machine the 2nd (PCI) video card couldn't be directly below the AGP card or I would generate errors. What version of XFree86 are you running by the way Cheers, Seth On Fri, 28 Jun 2002 09:02:28 -0500 (CDT) Greg Rolling <greg at guigeeks.com> wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Hello, > > I'm attempting to multi-head a Red Hat 7.3 box using an integrated Rage XL > and a GeForce2 MX400.
