Re: [LUG] DualHead Monitor Support On Ubuntu 5.10 (Ati)

Hi,

I've installed the Ati Radeon 9550 glx drivers as described in the Ubuntu wiki and I'd like to enable my second monitor - although I'm unsure of how to edit the Xorg config properly as the card has two output ports and most of the guides I see involve having two seperate cards. I don't mind doing a bit of config editing!

GLX acceleration is working for the record.

Kind Regards,


Ruairi Fullam

I haven't tried it myself (although I run Ubuntu with an ATI card) but I found these two links which may give you some pointers...

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2004-November/msg06722.html
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors#With_the_Open_Source_Drivers

Not sure if these will be of any help, but it might work.
