I have a radeon 9000 card whch has one dvi and one agp port. Not using ati-drivers
Code:
#lspci
[01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 If [Radeon9000] (rev 01)
01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 [Radeon 9000] (Secondary) (rev 01)

Both monitors show output right from when i first started KDE (didnt need to do anything). But they are just mirroring each other. :cry:

I want to extend desktop from the monitor on the dvi to the monitor on the agp

Code:
# xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1400 x 1200
VGA-0 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 304mm x228mm
   1024x768       60.0*+   70.1     60.0*
   832x624        74.6
   800x600        85.1     72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2
   640x480        85.0     75.0     72.8     72.8     75.0     66.7     60.0 59.9
   720x400        85.0     70.1
   640x400        85.1

   1280x1024      60.0*+   75.0     60.0     60.0*
   1400x1050      60.0
   1280x960       60.0
   1152x864       75.0
   1024x768       75.1     75.0     70.1     60.0
   832x624        74.6
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2
   640x480        75.0     72.8     72.8     75.0     66.7     60.0     59.9
   720x400        70.1
S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
Code:
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1024x768 --right-of DVI-0
xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 1400x1200 (desired size 2304x1024
