Good for you. Whoever came up with the idea of Xinerama... well, better left unsaid. > However I notice that my monitors (LCD's) console tty screen is off, > the text moved too far to the left.

Dunno about that, but you can tell the Matrox driver that the LCD is there vs a monitor and see if that cleans it up. > 2nd - I had to disable GLX to get X run - by disabling glx, I can't > play Quake anymore !

X should have told you it was enabling it on one and not the other automatically.

The G400/450 is AGP 2x, but you have to tell the driver to do that, otherwise it defaults to 1x for maxiumum stability. -- Marc Wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
