Initially the second monitor wasn't coming up at all. Now, with a

to bring up a second window manager that I have no access to..., the
second monitor just kinda sits there in the default kde start screen.
That along with the fact that if I enable Xinerama, I lock up X to the
point where I can't drop to a virtual screen because the keyboard and
mouse lock up as well. If I've gotten this far I must be only a step
or two away from getting this to work fully.
Need is to have one desktop stretched across 2 monitors. Roughly
3200x1600 desktop.
Do you have this working with the parhelia?
No, I have a Radeon X300 card.
If so are you using Xorg
or XFree86 in ports. I'm guess XFree86 would work in this setup
better, but it is just a hunch.
I'm using Xorg and Xinerama - two 19 inch monitors - one desktop. The
problem that I have is that the right screen won't display until the system
goes to sleep. So, when I first login, I change the setttings to get the
system to go to sleep in one minute, wait one minute, then move the mouse.
The right screen then works as long as I don't log out. (Locking and
unlocking the screen works just fine.)
But the problems you're having sound more driver related. Was there a
reason you chose the Linux driver instead of the native FBSD one?
