Hi, I've used a cheap radeon 9250 and 2 crt monitors configured configured as "stretched desktop" via xinerama. DRI was enabled. I now replaced one of the monitors with a TFT and will replace the 2nd one end of the week with a TFT too. Since my AGP card only got 1 DVI port, I've to attach the 2nd TFT to the VGA port. I'm not sure how big the difference will be (1280*1024 res. 4m VGA cable). If it is to bad I'm thinking of purchasing a 2nd card (PCI) with a DVI-out. I'm unsure if I'll still have DRI then when I use xinerama with 2 devices or not? Right now my radeon is only one device inside xorg.conf. The system I had in very past was equiped with a Matrox G400-DH which had no support for DRI if xinerama was used.I'm using on both screens the same res. Does that still apply?
