Twin View in Suse 9.3
Hi,
i want to have TwinView. I have a geforce FX 5200 and i had it working in mandrake 10.1. So i copied the twinview config i used in Mandrake's xorg.conf and it doesn't work!!! what do i have to do?? Here's my Xorg Code:
# /.../ |
So did you install the drivers from NVidia, or how is the current distro going to support the drivers you used on Mandrake?
Is the system a real twinhead system? Do you actually have two monitors? SUSE uses SaX2 (caps important) to configure multi-head displays, it's pretty easy if you run the tool and work your way through it. Ross |
I installed in Suse the frivers from Nvidia. They're the same as the one installed in mandrake (its a .ssh file for every distriburion)
I have a CRT monitor and a TV plugged to my video card, so i really have twinview. I can't configure with sax2 because it needs two video cards, it doesn't "know" what twinview is |
Are they both monitors connected the same way or do you have one hooked up to S-video?
|
I have one hooked up as S-Video. I aclared that in the xorg.conf file when i activated twinview
|
This is my xorg.conf that works with twinview but the resolution is 1024x768 because 1280x1024 is not good for tv.
