I'm sure it has a name, (DVI-I) but it's just a plug that converts the
digital out to analog. I plug the 2nd LCD monitor into that. Works a
charm. I'm set for one display that spans both monitors, in twinview
mode. You set that with nVidia X Server setup and then, using KDE, I use
it's screen set up tool to agree with the X server setup and it "just
works". But, I had to use the nVidia util first so I could write my
xorg.conf file. Ric
