two monitors -> one large desktop

[Polashek, Matthew]

Here are the results I got last time I tried it out:

Dual-head AGP video cards that "just work"So you're in the market for a new
video card, and want to make sure all that money you spend doesn't go to
waste - i.e. it will work flawlessly with Fedora. Matthew Polashek asked
just that and there were some good recommendations:*	Matrox cards get the
juice for being easy to setup, while they have hardware acceleration, it
doesn't scale to that of nvidia's. But Chris Manning runs a Matrox tri-head,
and finds that it works just fine.*	The nvidia GeForce FX 5700 has been
given a thumbs up, as has the GeForce MX 4000 though with nvidia's binary
only drivers.*	ATI is generally given a heads up for the open source
drivers, and the fact that Ben Steeves setup one PCI and one AGP card
together.
