next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hello everyone,
I'm trying to setup KDE to display in full xinerama on my new computer. I have
an nvidia GFX5600 which is capable of displaying on two monitors (I've got
it working with windows Xp) but I can't seems to get it right on FreeBSD:
X only displays on one monitor and just blanks out the other. So I have a few
questions:
--Do I have to compile Xfree86 with some special arguments to enable xinerama?
I installed it from the cd (4.9 stable, world remade about a week ago).
--Does KDE 3.1.4 support xinerama? Do I have to do anything special to enable
it?
--I haven't found all that much information about configuring xinerama. Have I
missed anything?
I'm appending my XFree86config so you guys can tell me if it's something in
there that's incorrect.
Thanks for your help.
Louis
