Dual head setup
Hi guys,
I'm banging my head against this one - with little effect...
I just installed Etch on my workstation, which has a Radeon 7000 and two
Dell 19" LCD screens. I'm trying to set up an extended desktop - sort of
need it that way to be able to work efficiently.
I followed various howtos and posts in the internet, and what I have now
seems to be what I'm supposed to have but I'm still getting just a cloned
display, and KDE doesn't give me the option to change anything (in Control
Center --> Peripherals --> Display).
Is there anything special I have to do - some package I forgot to install?
Here is my config.
Thanks
Hans
