Mandriva 2006 Beta 0.3 Dual Head - 08/29/05 08:01 PM

Hi,

Mandriva 2006 has picked up my dual head Radeon 9800 pro okay, and shows each "Head" in the configuration screen.

However, I can only seem to run the monitors in "Clone" mode - so they are just showing the same on each monitor.

Obviously, it would be much better to run them as an extended desktop - can anyone give me any guidance as to how to do this?

Thanks

Martin

Martin,
I am having the same problem. Are you using Xinerama? Maybe it's something in the XF86config? If you found a solution since posting please let me know.
Thanks,
Keller
