Greetings,
I have just come across this thread. I too have installed FreeBSD
(FBSD 4.3-BETA a few hours old) on my Inspiron 8000, and running
XFree86 4.0.2 successfully.
In Windows, one is able to connect an external montior, and have
2 screens at the same time, effectviely getting (1400+1400) x 1048
I think that's known as dual-head. Do correct me if I'm wrong.
I am wondering if anyone tried to do this in XF86 4.0.2?? If yes,
how?? It will be really really cool to get it to work. :-)
And impress the hell out of my fellow workers!!!
I know the Xinerama in XF86 4.x is supposed to make it realy easy,
but I cannot seems to fnd any how-to documents at all.
(PS: if anyone has the sound working?? do please let me know too.
as far as I know, its a ESS Maestro, and currently not supported
in FBSD 4.2)
Thanks.
Regards,
/calvin
