TwinView on a laptop can be configured in the same way as on a desktop machine (please refer to Appendix G); note that in a TwinView configuration using the laptop's internal flat panel and an external CRT, the CRT is the primary display device (specify its HorizSync and VertRefresh in the Monitor section of your X config file) and the flat panel is the secondary display device (specify its HorizSync andVertRefresh through the SecondMonitorHorizSync and SecondMonitorVertRefreshoptions). </cite> > > I'm not sure where you got this from, but its not true. Maybe no longer true, if your laptop is new (mine is one year old) and has a dvi connector. We can read in Nvidia readme: <cite> NOTE: anything attached to a 15 pin VGA connector is regarded by the driver as a CRT. "DFP" should only be used to refer to digital flat panels connected via a DVI port. </cite> Using Atrpms last dynamic compiled version of nvidia driver. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 44 55 35 61 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHYGgEdE6C2dhV2JURAtDnAKCCmmfm+xGNmCRcOw4FJd5k5aUZDACcCpWC 1UIegJvN/8VhbSWBc+dCNaU= =+RWi -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
