Hello one and all!
I bought a Acer H233H 23" monitor and a Gforce 9800GT video card. I
would like to assemble this into a dual head machine running:
Release 8.04 (hardy)
Kernel Linux 2.6.24-24-generic
I have got the monitor to work single head but dual head escapes me.
Can anybody out there tell me what is wrong with this:
