Dual Monitors on Linux . . . ?

Postby Mandrake » Sat 21 Feb, 2004 7:51 am

After installing and settting up a second Monitor, it fuctions perfectly in XP, but in SuSE 9, both monitors disaply the same thing! How can I make the second monitor function correctly so I can use it as part of my desktop?

I got the dual monitors running in Linux, after much playing around. Needless to say, it was MUCH easier in Windows.
