Just as an aside, for those who might be about to purchase a monitor with dual VGA/DVI inputs intending to connect to two machines (e.g. the ubiquitous Windows/Linux in parallel setup), it's worth checking to see how easily you can switch between video input channels using the available fascia buttons. For example, I've got an NEC 175VXM+ which allows me to switch between the two machines connected to it using a very convenient single button push. Whereas my Philips 2000W requires seven (sic!) button pushes to switch channels. Needless to say, if you are going to be switching between channels on a regular basis an arrangement like that on the Philips would be a major PITA. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
