3 screens

[antrock101]

Hi,

I have 2 gfx cards (geforce 260 gtx and amd 5450) they feed 3 monitors. However in ubuntu i can get this to work it only shows 2 screens. If I load the restricted drivers for either card it will display on that screen only. I also have an issue where if I use multiple screens on the top menu bar each screen has a duplicate of the indicators (system tray) how do I do this so it is on the primary screen only?

such issue is often due to the hardware used, and their limitations: hdmi, dvi, cord

This works 100% with Windows XP,7 and 8

Sorry, I'm fairly new and thought this would be an easy fix, the task bar thing especially

Would help if you told us which version of Ubuntu you're using.
