Hi All,
I am trying to get a dual-head display to work with FC4. I also have
spent hours googling and tweaking my xorg.conf to no avail.
Here is the issue...
I am using a Compaq nx7000 with a Radeon Mobility 9200 dual-head video
card. However, when I boot I ONLY get video on the external display,
regardless of how I configure my xorg.conf.
Ultimately I want to get spanning displays. Here is my xorg.conf file.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Blessings

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
# Option "Xleds" "1 2 3"
# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
# Option "XkbDisable"
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
