I did a new install of 7.0 on a system equipped with an nvidia 4 video port
card with just two monitors attached.
Xorg --configure worked fine, and setup xorg.conf correctly for both
monitors.
When I bring up X with gnome as root, both screens get used just
fine. However when I bring up X with gnome as a regular user only one
screen is used. So the problem appears permission related but I'm sure
could be a configuration error as well.
So if anyone has any advise on how to fix this, or where to look, I'd
appreciate any guidance.
Thanks,
-Derek
