For starters, the README for nvidia states.... To enable TwinView, you must specify the following option in the Device section of your X Config file: Option "TwinView" I don't see that in your file's "Device" section. I've not done TwinView in years....but I also think there is only a single Device section since you have only one video card. Suggest you read.... http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/190.53/README/chapter-13.html ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-7676/README.txt (older, but the samples are better IMHO) Also, sample xorg.conf files can be found on the internet after using google to search for them. And one more item. Since this is a nVidia configuration question I've found that asking these types of questions to be best handled on the nVidia forums. http://forums.nvidia.com/ (FWIW, when I did TwinView my nVidia card had VGA and S-Video out. I used them simultaneously without problem.) -- A Difficulty for Every Solution. -- Motto of the Federal Civil Service
