Hope it helps. __ Jorge -----Original Message----- From: Emanuel Haupt To: newbie@XFree86.Org Sent: 7/3/02 1:44 PM Subject: dual screen hi, i have a matrox MGA G400 AGP card with two monitor outputs. how can i make xfree86 to switch with the mouse from screen1 to screen2? someone have me the hint to use xf86cfg but that did not really help. i think it would if i had two completely different graphic cards. Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "mga" VendorName "Matrox" BoardName "MGA G400 AGP" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" EndSection has maybe someone the same card and made experiences with it? emanuel _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie _______________________________________________ Newbie@XFree86.Org *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
