    Dual-Screen Setup

    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.

    Code:
    # /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
    #
    # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
    # values from the debconf database.
    #
    # Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.
    # (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
    #
    # This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
    # if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
    # package.
    #
    # If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
    # again, run the following command:
    #  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
