I'm still really new to linux, but I've been studying the xorg.conf stuff, and attempting to get my dual-screen system up and running again. I feel like I'm really close, but I'm missing something.
I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what I need to do to get both my monitors working.
This is my xorg.conf at the moment. Looks great on my 19" widescreen, but nothing appears on my 19" CRT.
