Jeron,

I am currently working in WinBlows right now, I will send you the config a little later when I can boot up a real OS. :-)

Jeroen,

I have a Dell Latitude C800 with the NVidia GeForce 440 Go.  I had
similar problems and found that I had to set up a second screen in my
XFree86 config file and turn of the LCD using the Panel Off line.

HTH,

Chuck

Hi all,
I have a NVidia Geforce 2 GO videocard on a laptop, so I want to use
my external monitor for presentations, but it doesn't work. I have
tried installing the latest driver from NVidia which gives some
progress: from an image of a testscreen (lots of colors on a text
screen) I go to a black screen.
I use RH9 with XFree86 4.3.0.

Please help.
Thank,
Jeroen
