*Nvidia* + dual head



I'm hoping to be able to use the VGA out on my notebook to show a different desktop. Probably a common request. Searching the archives, I found this message http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2004/03/msg00301.html and I think it is what I want. However I have a NVidia GForce4 420 Go and I think that the NV options make this a little harder to do. I have got it to show a cloned screen and to show a side by side view where I can drag apps across, but this creates problems when things are maximised (java progs for example). If it is possible to have a separate desktop, but still be able to swap mouse/keyboard use, I'd appreciate any help.

Thank you,
Hugh
