Sucess with dual monitors

[phenix777]

So, here's what I've tried:





1)edited xorg.conf



-added the following sections (in the appropriate places):-



Section "Monitor"

	Identifier	"BenQ FP757-12 2"

	Option		"DPMS"

	HorizSync	30-65

	VertRefresh	50-75

EndSection



Section "Screen"

	Identifier	"Right Screen"

	Device		"ATI Technologies, Inc. RV350 AP [Radeon 9600]"

	Monitor		"BenQ FP757-12 2"

	DefaultDepth	24

	SubSection "Display"

		Depth		1

		Modes		"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

	EndSubSection

	SubSection "Display"

		Depth		4

		Modes		"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

	EndSubSection

	SubSection "Display"

		Depth		8

		Modes		"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

	EndSubSection

	SubSection "Display"

		Depth		15

		Modes		"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

	EndSubSection

	SubSection "Display"

		Depth		16

		Modes		"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

	EndSubSection

	SubSection "Display"

		Depth		24

		Modes		"1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

	EndSubSection

EndSection



-And Edited this section to become:-



Section "ServerLayout"

	Identifier	"Dual-Monitor Layout"

	Screen 0	"Default Screen" 0 0

	Screen 1	"Right Screen" RightOf "Default Screen"

	Option "Xinerama" "On"

	InputDevice	"Generic Keyboard"

	InputDevice	"Configured Mouse"

	InputDevice     "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"

	InputDevice     "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"

	InputDevice     "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"

EndSection



===================



So, I figured out how to reload X (I think).  I press ctrl-alt-F1 to
switch to command line and ctrl-alt-F7 to reload X.



Now, what happens???  Nothing.  X works fine but I still have two
mirrored monitors, just like before.  I want one large desktop. 
Perhaps this has to do with xinerama?  I'm just not sure.

Anyway, this was as much as I could figure out.  Please let me know
what I'm missing.  Thanks again.

Emil



P.S. - I think I still need to add  "device" section.  I will try and
then let you know if it worked.  Thanks.
