+<desc>How to enable a second display which allows you to extend your
+desktop across two displays</desc>
+
+</info>
+
+
+<title>Enable a second monitor</title>
+
+<p>Having a second monitor is great for multitasking and setting it up is
quick and easy to do
+by following these simple steps.</p>
+
+<p>Note: Only certain computers are capable of supporting two displays,
make sure you
+have proper outputs on your video card, and that your card is able to
support this feature.</p>
+
+<steps>
+<item><p>To get started, ensure that you have your second monitor attached
to your
+video card, then click the icon at the very right of the panel and select
+<gui>System Settings</gui>. Next, In the <gui>Hardware</gui> section select
<gui>Monitors</gui>.
+</p></item>
+<item><p>Click the rectangle that says your monitors name, such as XYZ
Brand 23. To enable it,
+you will want to change the setting at the top of the dialog from
<gui>Off</gui> to <gui>On</gui>;
+then select the appropriate resolution that your monitor supports, refresh
+rate, and rotation (if necessary). If you're unsure which settings to use
then refer to your
+monitor's manual for configuring the appropriate settings.</p></item>
+
+<item><p>To test out the new configuration hit the <gui>Apply</gui> key, if
it looks right
+hit <gui>Close</gui>. If the monitor is not in the right location virtually
in contrast to its
+actual physical location then you can drag the monitors' rectangle around
to the appropriate
+location.</p></item></steps>
+
+<p>At default, different images are displayed on each monitor, if you wish
to enable the
+same image across both monitors then tick the box titled <gui>Same image in
all monitors</gui>
+and then <gui>Apply</gui>. You also have the option to create a shortcut to
the <gui>Monitors</gui>
+application by enabling <gui>Show monitors in panel</gui>, which will then
place itself
+in the panel.</p>
