Dual Monitor

Usare due monitor (uno come estensione dell'altro) è molto semplice in Linux oggi. Esistono molti tools che Vi permettono di farlo automaticamente, ma io amo molto il terminale e quindi lo faccio a manina configurando /etc/X11/xorg.conf nel seguente modo:

Ricordando che il mio hardware è composto da due monitor SAMSUNG SyncMaster uno 793DF e l'altro 793S e da una scheda video Matrox Millenium G450, Vi auguro buon divertimento e buone configurazioni..
