I only have one monitor (the LaCie photon18blue, with two connectors),
which I thus connected to the Radeon on my G4 with both cables
simultaneously. BTW, in Mac OS X 10.4.9 the two connections now appear
as dual monitors: interesting, but hardly useful, with only one display.

I used the two cables that already were supplied with the monitor: a
DVI-D cable (previously my only connection) and a VGA (D-Sub) cable; I
had to move the DVI cable to the ADC port on the Radeon, using the
supplied DVI-to-ADC adaptor, because the VGA cable could only be
connected with a similar VGA-to-DVI adaptor.

As you know, the Radeon 9000 Mac Edition has one ADC and one DVI-I
connector: so if you use both a digital and an analogue cable at the
same time, you must plug the digital one into the ADC port and the
analogue one into the DVI port.

Anyway, albeit with some more cable clutter in comparison to the
previous "clean" DVI-only configuration, it worked!

Why? Really, I don't know: but maybe you or some of the
hardware/software gurus here could imagine an explanation...? :-)
