Multiheaded Madness (was Ze Cool Factor)

How ultimately cool is this?


Finally got a dual-head/multi-head configuration working, with only the nvidia driver, unfortunately. But it works!

The magic includes (despite X telling me that there are two cards) using the same PCI BusID, and setting the Screen parameters in the Device section. Bit of struggle, but finally resolved! nvidia do have good docs for their drivers.

Theoretically, bonszai supports 3 displays, with the third a TV-out (via S-video). Will try that later.

Now, me is pro-programmer, with two displays. If the other display becomes an LCD, it'll be ultimate goodness!
