This part looks mostly good, except you haven't set the relative |
37 |
relationships of the two screens (left, right, etc). That belongs in the |
38 |
monitor sections now, according to the link I posted last time. |

You've still got a mixed combination of old and new setups. You should |
86 |
only have one screen section, and your serverlayout section should not |
87 |
have two screens or anything related to dual screens in it (clone |
88 |
option). After making that change, I suppose you'll need to list all the |
89 |
modes you care about for either monitor in the single screen section. |
