How stable is dual head, twin view feature ?

[tvn1981 <tvn1981@flashmail.com>]

Hello

I have a Woody system (kerne 2.4.18) with XFree86 Version 4.1.0.1.  I also have a Radeon 7000ve with twinview, and an Nvidia gforce2 quadro with twinview.

However, I just can't get dual monitor run well on this system. For the Radeon card, the twinview feature doesn't work at all,  I was told that it doesn't even work w/ this Radeon card even with XFree 4.2.x.

The Nvidia card, using the latest nvidia's driver, works!  But the problem is X freezes so often, the whole computer just froze, I have to physically reboot.

I like the dual monitor setting so really want to know if there's any setting that make this work on my system.

So just wondering if it's just me that has problems with twinview stuff ?  Or is there any other settings that you would recommend - how well is Matrox G400 or Agp+PCI settings ?  they run well ? 


thanks
