the laptop is a Lenovo T61, with an Intel video card. The Os is Suse 11.4, installed with a minimal X initially, then added in the latest kde 3.5. How can I make a plug in monitor work in conjunction with the native lcd? thanks, d.
ok, a bump from the original posting, perhaps a rephrasing of the question. up to suse 11.1 we had sax2 and it was easy to handle a dual head system. then apparently xrandr took over.... but 11.4, at least my 11.4 x6-64 , ver 2.6.37.6-0.20-desktop, does not have sax2 nor doet it have xrandr. Is there another tool i can use to add a second screen?
It is offtopic here. I use the nvidia-settings utility.
Technically it might be "off topic", but since kde4 actually can do the dual screen thing with a couple of clicks while kde3 can not, perhaps someone on this list might want to share how they handle the dual head issue when sax2 or xrandr don't seem to be available. In 11.4 i found some binaries under sax2-tools, when i get the chance i will check them out, perhaps it is only the gui that is missing... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org
