This discussion is related to the others about dual displays.
I also have been trying to enable actions like:
mplayer -display :0.1 mymovie.avi
But am not interested in having a wide display or anything.
I, however, have not even been able to get both displays working. I can
get one or the other to work, but not both at the same time. I believe
that might be a "feature" of my older GeForce3 card. When I start X I
get the following warning:
(WW) NVIDIA: More than one matching Device section found: SVIDEO
I'd be happy if I could just switch displays without having to log-out
and back in again. Perhaps via the "Configure Display" dialog which
currently has "Screen 1" grayed out. I know that in Windows a few years
ago I could switch over to SVideo.
When I run "X :0.1" It says: Server is already active for display 0
Below is my XF86Config file. I would appreciate any help. I have been
reading many discussions on the topic.
