Claude: <br><br>I modified the settings out of Mandrivia's control centre application (I am sorry, I do not know the English name) with the X Server editing application therein. If I recall correctly, it did require a bit of fooling around, and it may sound silly, but I started using the second monitor after I installed; when I installed I only had one. I think Mandriva just has problems with the initial recognition of 2 monitors; it failed on 09 so I just upgraded instead. <br>
<br>Hope that helps!<br><br>Dan<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/12/9 Claude Felizardo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cafelizardo@gmail.com">cafelizardo@gmail.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>I haven't had a chance to upgrade my desktop at work so it's still<br>
running Mandriva 2007.1. I figured it was too old to try an upgrade<br>
so I did a fresh install in the spare partition. I do this about<br>
every other year at work and on the fileserver at home but I usually<br>
try out newer stuff on my laptop more often. Pretty much all of my<br>
machines have a spare OS partition so I can quickly swap back and<br>
forth.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I forgot to add that when I go back to KDE 3.5 on the other<br>
partition with the MergedFB configuration, when I run KDE Panel, there<br>
are options regarding the 2nd monitor. I can enable Xinerama, there's<br>
an 'Identify' button that will put the big "1" and "2" on each<br>
monitor. When I run KDesktop, again, it knows about multiple screens<br>
- its lets me change the backgrounds either across all screen, a<br>
specific one or each one. I don't see the same options with KDE 4.1.<br>
<br>
Do you see these options on your system?<br>
