hi, after going through some bad times with my old mandrake 8.2 (mainly with kde3 installation) i decided to switch to RH. i installed 7.2 via the ftp install using one of my other machines (it works beautifully BTW) and installed the kde3 rpm's - no problems. so far so good.
i am using 2 monitors here with 2 VGA cards, GEforce2 MX400, and ATI Mach64. both cards are listed in lspci, and seems to be configured OK, but i cant start the other card+monitor using xinerama. startx +ximerama gives an error message. in mandrake, XFree86 --configure did the work, and created a new configuration file that worked with both cards. seems like things are a bit different in RH land. the help file (XFree86 --help) says to use the +xinerama option, but it doesn't work. XFree claims : bad option "+xinerama". i didn't find any tool that knows how to do that in RH (Xconfigurator doesn't either) and the most weird thing is that the "use xinerama extention" option that used to be in Kcontrol in mandrake, is not here. did anyone see this before ? -- -------------------------------------- Amir Tal, System Administrator Whatsup - Linux related news And support - in hebrew ! icq : 15748705 http://www.whatsup.org.il -------------------------------------- ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
