hello,
I'm having a problem with dual monitors.
basically I have a tft screen at 1024x768 in front of me, which I would like to use as the primiary monitor, and a crt to the right of it which I would like to use as secondary.
Using the system-admin-disply tab didn't seem to work, it allowed dual head (I want them to be independant) but switched them around so that the crt was primary and apparently situated where the tft is.
I channged the xorg.conf to try and allow the monitors settings to stay (kept reverting) and now all I am able to get is a clone of my tft on the crt no matter what I change
xorg is
