'k, looks simple enough ... but doesn't seem to work ... if I uncomment Screen1: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "XFree86 Configured" Screen "Screen0" # Screen "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" Option "xinerama" "on" Option "clone" "off" EndSection Fatal server error: Requested Entity already in use! So, my first question, which might be one that should be obvious ... will this work if I don't have the nvidia kernel module loaded? Or is that irrelevant? I just tried using pciconf -l to see the devices, and only see the one PCI/nvidia device ... and the sample at the wiki shows them using the same PCI device for both Device entries ... so how does it know one from the other?
