Hi

I've been trying to get my dual monitor setup working and even using the example xorg.conf from the nvidia settings utility I can't seem to be able to crack it, any help would be extremely appreciated.

Here's a copy of my xorg.conf:

Code:
Section "ServerLayout"

    Identifier     "Simple Layout"
    Screen         0 "Screen 1" 0 0
    InputDevice    "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
    InputDevice    "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"

EndSection

Section "ServerFlags"

     Option         "RenderAccel"   "true"
     Option         "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
     Option         "DynamicTwinView" "1"
