Damn, good article. Had to fiddle around with somewhat. Changed RightOf to LeftOf and that had some strange effects on the resolution. But, when i changed both resolutions to 1280×800 everything started working nicely. Only question i have is that my background image gets streched over the 2 monitors, and i would like to have the same background on both.. but i guess that this aint possible. Please let me know if Better in this case really is the enemy of good (edison’s law)

Thanks again. Jeffrey

I wrote an article on dual monitors using xrandr. It only involves changing 1 line in your xorg.conf.

That is ok – you can go ahead and put it on “Mepis Wiki”, and if you want to give me a credit, just post a link on the wiki to here

This has really been an exhilarating experience. I cannot thank you enough for this.

I am using Mepis 6.5 on a Lenovo Y300 laptop. I think a lot of Mepis users would like to be able to do this. While I am happy to put this on the Mepis Wiki I would really think the credit is yours and would appreciate your doing it.

In more general terms, it would be nice to be able to give a description that makes sense of the logic of the xorg.conf

Thanks once again.
