Subject: [gentoo-user] Xorg.conf changes and dual screen setup

1 Hi,
2
3 the update to xorg-server-1.3 broke my dual-screen setup. It creates a
4 virtual screen size with the same size of the primary monitor for the
5 second monitor which is my TV. So i can only reach a zone with 800x600
6 on the second device, even scrolling within the virtual screen is
7 impossible. I want 1280x1024 for the primary and 800x600 for the
8 secondary Monitor which displays the complete desktop on any screen.
9
10 The Xorg.0.log file does not show any errors which may give some hints.
11
12 Hi have searched and found that there were changes in the xorg.conf
13 file. But i have found no documentation which describes the changes
14 which have to be made to the configuration file. I have also checked man
15 xorg.conf but haven't found anything mich may cause this problem.
16
17 Any help would be appreciated!
