hi there...
I'm really new to ubuntu and i'm trying to get my Dual monitors set up using ubuntu 9.04 64-bit. I have the nvidia driver installed and currently have both displaces showing ubuntu desktop but i can only open applications on the first screen. I would also like to install compiz and get rotating cube working, but first things first I'd like my monitors be work were i can drag an application to the second monitor.
Thanks in advanced and here is my xorg.conf file
