    Dual Monitor Setup

    I am new to Kubuntu, as well as Linux in general, and am trying to figure out how to set up my dual monitors. I currently have them plugged into the same video card, and the setup works just fine on my windows partition, however, I am unaware of how to set it up so that the desktop is extended rather than mirrored. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Firstly I'd ask, what kind of graphics card are you running? I'm mainly experienced with Nvidia cards, and in that case you can just make sure you have nvidia-settings, then run that and it's pretty easy actually! (this is assuming you're running the nvidia binary-blob drivers).

    For more though, just check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo, it's pretty comprehensive
