I have a problem getting the dual monitor setup to work.
I have picture in the right resolution - 1600x1200, but it is mirrored so I have the same on both monitors.
In the display settings, it is not detected as a multiple head graphics card. So I do not get the option to set them up as two monitors.
I have tinkered a bit with xorg.conf to see if I could get it to work. But so far it shows the same. I have tried two version. Here are both. The longer one is a modification of one I found on the internet.
The long one:
A dmesg gives me some interesting configuration (after starting up with the long version here).
Any other commands I can run to get things working or find out more?
