No xinerama in 8.0?? ;-(

Hi again,

I'm trying to set up a dual head system in redhat 8.0. I have an MSI G4MX440 with two video outs. I've read up a lot more on Xinerama but i can't find libs in redhat 8.0. I'm pretty sure that psyche doesn't ship with it in its xfree86. I downloaded the current from XFree86.org (where libxinerama did exist) and edited the XF86config file as the man pages specified but still nothing worked. Now the problem seemed that the Nvidia GLX and kernel drivers couldn't work with the newly installed X system. I guess the RH8.0 must differ somewhat...

Here's my XF86Config:


# File generated by anaconda.
#

Section "ServerLayout"
#
Identifier "Anaconda Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"
# The location of the RGB database. Note, this is the name of the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db"). There is normally
# no need to change the default.
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
RgbPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
FontPath "unix/:7100"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/freefont"
FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/sharefont"

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"

# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
