Can you plug in both monitors and re-start the system and then check xrandr? It should show monitors like VGA-0 and VGA-1 or such. >From command line you can experiment with settings, xrandr --output VGA-0 --output VGA-1 left-of Since xrandr can work interactively, experiment with that, and then try the xorg approach. I do have a working xorg.conf that I posted in this email list last Friday, in a message with a title "dual head howto for xrandr; problem with window manager, no more merged fb or xinerama flags" HTH -- Paul E.
