Hello All
I'm experimenting with dual monitor setup on Ubuntu 12.04 using Unity 3d. This recycled HP workstation has an Nvidia GeForce GT520 card with a DVI/D and a VGA video output.
At present I'm using the
nvidia twinview setting with an old 1280by 1024 monitor and my new 1920 by 1080 monitor. One is electroluminescent panel and the other is LED, so the colour and contrast mismatch is horrible, but I'm just testing the concept and logistics.
Under Unity 3d, the launcher is on both screens, so I just set it to hide using MyUnity.
Questions:
- Is there a better way of setting up two monitors with an nvidia card and Unity 3d? I like the compiz rendered screen, less flicker than with metacity. I'd like to try one launcher on the left most screen always on.
- Is anyone using a couple of matched screens side by side in portrait mode? That is the arrangement I'm moving towards.
Mods: this is not a support question, as I'm not having any problems as such so I stuck the questions here.
