[opensuse] Second Monitor
Hey everyone, I just hooked my server to my home entertainment system and I have a Nvidia Gforce mx 400 with auxilary svideo and coax outputs , would it be possible to define a second monitor for these outputs? -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket,NH http://en.opensuse.org/Education "let's make a difference" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Not being real familiar with that vid card, I would have to say that it depends on the card's specs. If it say it can drive two than chances are Sax will let you set it up. I have done that with the current bunch of ATI cards and it works quite well (Better than windows in fact). -- _____________________________________ John Andersen

Since you're using nVidia, su to root, and give nvidia-settings a try. I've used that on my system (using the latest nVidia drivers on a 7600 card) and have it set up with two desktops, one on my tft monitor, and a second on my lcd tv. This works beautifully with MythTV, and all MythTV activity is totally independent of what is happening on my main desktop (for example, I can play full screen games on the tft, and someone else can be watching a movie via MythTV on the tv).
