Dual Screens


Posts: 129

Could someone please explain this to me.
I have duel screens working fine on windows when I boot Mepis 6.5, I can't get it, no matter what I try. But I have just discovered something, If I start the penquine racer game, both screens work, albeit a clone. Ernie

Dual screens

This is what worked for my matrox g550 card:
Just open (as root) /etc/X11/xorg.conf and in
Section "ServerLayout" delete the "#" before
"Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0""
then goto
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
delete the "#" before BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
and the same with
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card1"
delete the "#" before BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
save the file and restart the x-server (Ctrl+alt+backspace)
