twinview with nvidia FX 5200

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm trying to get twinview or clone
working on my nvidia FX 5200 card on FC7. I have these nvidia packages
installed:
nvidia-graphics-devices-1.0-5.fc7
nvidia-graphics9755-libs-1.0_9755-87.fc7
nvidia-graphics-helpers-0.0.21-22.fc7
nvidia-graphics9755-1.0_9755-87.fc7
nvidia-graphics9755-kmdl-2.6.22.4-65.fc7-1.0_9755-87.fc7

Right now I have the display working on the SVideo port, but not on the
DVI. I would like to see the same display on both. 

A couple people on the mythtv list tried to help but they had
conflicting information. For example, I used one of their xorg.conf as a
template, which gave me two device and two screen sections. Then the
other guy said you should only have one of each. He made a couple
suggestions, but not specific so I had to trial and error. I asked if he
would share his xorg.conf and I never heard back. Maybe I still will
since it was only yesterday.

Anyway, below is my current xorg.conf. Can anyone suggest any *specific*
changes to my xorg.conf that might get the display working on BOTH the
SVideo and DVI ports? I'm tried of trying million changes, reboot, try
again, etc...

Thanks,
James
