For Stereophiles and Xineramaphiles,

for those that asked me for our Xorg.config file (see below) for running a two screen setup (requires Nvidia Quadro card).

This file is set up for a stereo beamer and a LCD.

You have to do some editing of your xorg.conf file (do that by creating
a copy and work in that):
- exactly duplicate your section "Device" (it should appear twice in the
file, i.e., dual head setup configuration) and make sure the following
setting appear (including the 3 options listed, they are most relevant):

Section "Device"
BoardName "Quadro FX 1400"
BusID "1:0:0"
Driver "nvidia"
Identifier "Device[0]"
Option "IgnoreEDID"
Option "AllowDFPStereo"
Option "Stereo" "3"
Screen 0
VendorName "NVidia"
EndSection
Section "Device"
BoardName "Quadro FX 1400"
BusID "1:0:0"
Driver "nvidia"
Identifier "Device[1]"
Option "IgnoreEDID"
Option "AllowDFPStereo"
Option "Stereo" "3"
Screen 1
VendorName "NVidia"
EndSection

- Serverlayout has to be edited. This part is not trivial. It matters
which device is connected to which port of the card. You have to try and
find out for yourselve. You will have to restart the computer each time
you change something in order to initialise the memory of the card!

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout[all]"
InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer"
Option "Clone" "off"
Option "Xinerama" "on"
Screen "Screen[1]" RightOf "Screen[0]"
Screen "Screen[0]"
EndSection

- duplicate and edit the monitor sections.

Once you edited the file, you have to:
- make sure (!!) your CRT screen can handle the frequencies otherwise you could destroy it
- switch to init 3 mode
- make a copy of your current Xorg.config file, otherwise you will hate yourselve
- swap the X config file in the /etc/X11 directory with the new file: it
makes a difference (and the card has a memory) to which port the CRT is
connected
- restart computer
- switch to init 5 mode
- use Sax to finetune your settings.

Good luck, it takes a bit of playing around with Sax,

Jeroen.
