Doug,
I edited '/root/xorg.conf' per your suggestion (see attached). No
change. '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' appears the same.
It looks like the card "sees" Monitor1, because when I do anything on
the KDE desktop on Monitor0 I can see changes in the color bands on
Monitor1 (still a clone, although an inperfect one).
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Richard Ehrlich
