yes i've had envyng installed for a few weeks. no twinview available to my graphics cards(shaded out). and when i tick xenorama (whatever its called). my system goes into a mental state on booting. flashes each screen, crashes, tries the other.. round and round we go.. i've read all on the net. just given up. I did read though the 173 driver did work as i said already.. but it wouldnt work for me.. Fedora maybe the way. I dont mean to be rude.. to those who replied.. just thought someone might know the answer. seeing i know all mentioned so far.. 

PS: gnome display.. says unknown monitor and doesn't even find the second monitor. both my cards a nvidia.. one is a 7050 onboard and other is 9600gt

cheers
