Guys,
I've been able to make some headroom (have the second monitor connected
- up and running) BUT it's a 'clone' of the primary screena and not
'spanned'...even though my /etc/X11/XF86Config contains:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Multihead layout"
Screen 0 "Screen0" LeftOf "Screen1"
Screen 1 "Screen1" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "DevInputMice" "AlwaysCore"
Option "Xinerama" "on"
Option "Clone" "off"
EndSection
It's still just 'cloning' the screen - I've tried both the options in
the Dual Head Desktop setup 'spanning desktops' or 'individual desktops'
doesn't seems to change?
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for the help/insight! - Dave
