Hi, I have two Samsung 971p monitors plugged via two DVI ports in xinerama mode. They work best for me. If you want to tune them under linux you can use ddccontrol [1], which is also in portage (note: 971p seem to be only in the latest ddc database, so if you'll not find this model there - try to unmask packages related to the ddccontrol) [1] http://ddccontrol.sourceforge.net/ good luck -- best regards, Aleksey V.
