??? The two monitors Just Work. I did nothing. To answer your other
question, they concurrently show the same as each other: I have the same
display twice.

The problems are nothing to do with the display(s). I like KDE 3.5.x, and
strongly dislike KDE 4. I shall move on to Squeeze and Trinity when I have
to, or when I find TDE (Trinity Desktop Environment) as, or even more, stable
as/than KDE 3.5.10. From my point of view I must differ from you: the
problem is not soluble as of now.
