this will be my last post from linux. i just cant seem to get my dual display working. i spent a good chunk of money on 2 widescreen lcd's and a dual display ati card. ive been fighting with various distros of linux for over a week
now to get my dual display working and also get 3d working at an acceptable speed. (half of a fps doesnt cut it). it seems i can have good 3d, OR good dual display, but not both.
seems like the default driver included with linux works great in 3d, but i get no dual screen. the ati driver gives me dual screens, but no 3d. after a week of messing with this, ive come to the conclusion that i either need to buy a new video card, or go to windows where i know my card works properly. i cant waste any more time reading linux forums and trying out new things which hose my x and are a pain to undo.
its cheaper to go to windows than buy a new card...
anyone want a fedora core 6 install dvd as well as an ubuntu install dvd? send me a pm.
