Re: xinerama 2 monitors help
hi ya kmark
you need to define BOTH screen 0 and screen 1
- you probably want to uncomment your second screen 1 comment
see below
- basically you need to have:
2 screen definitions
2 device definitions
"serverlayout" that calls out both screens
- you can experiment w/ xinerama off first ...
boot into X11 .. regular way
root# export DISPLAY=:0.1
root# xterm -bg black -fg white
if the xterm popped up in the other screen ..
you're all set
turn on xinerama ... and have fun
- watch out for unsupported modules like dri in older svga cards
more dual screen fun ( lots of howto )
