Hi everyone,
I need some help. I have a Dell running Redhat EL4 with aNvidia Quadra 1400 video card. This card has to dvi outputs. When I use system-config-display to setup dual heads, the xserver dies. Do I need to supply a special Device in xorg.conf, since both outputs are off one card? THe BusID is not defined in one of the Device sections. xorg.conf: # Xorg configuration created by system-config-display Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Multihead layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" LeftOf "Screen1" Screen 1 "Screen1" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" Option "Xinerama" "off" Option "Clone" "on" EndSection Section "Files" # RgbPath is the location of the RGB database.
