I decided to blow out the FC2 installation I inherited on my workstation<br>when I started here and installed CentOS-4.4-i386. Server side stuff I<br>pretty<br>much have down cold, but getting two heads on two seperate video cards
<br>doesn't seem to work for me. I'm using the built in Intel 865/810 card as<br>primary, and an ATI Radeon 9200 PCI card as secondary.<br><br>Initially, my system bios on this Dell 4600 was set to Auto for which card
<br>is primary. That made the ATI card primary. Configuring the 865 card<br>as secondary, and I have the same monitor on both heads, didn't seem to<br>do anything for me.<br><br>Then, I set the onboard video as primary, went back into
<br>system-config-display<br>and configured the ATI card as secondary, logout/login still nothing<br>changed.<br><br>I'm trying to get it to configure as 'spanning desktops', so I just have<br>twice as<br>much real estate, and ideally can drag in between.
<br><br>Anyone have suggestions? Also, in general, the wm is pretty bland, so<br>suggestions<br>to make it a little more fun would be good too.<br><br>:)<br><br>Peter<br><br>--<br>Peter Serwe <peter at infostreet dot com>
