Thread: Swapping monitors on nvidea


hi folks,

well, sounds straightforward, isn't me.

situation ... nvidea or other - registering geforce 210 ... it's got 3 outputs, dvi, vga , hdvi.

i've got 19" flat panel (aoc wj1980) plugged in vga , 21" widescreen (kds kl2200dw) plugged in dvi.

nvidea x server recognises aoc screen 0 , 21" screen 1.

why problem? well, i'll explain..

in twin view, games see both screens 1 big screen. i'd play them on wide screen panel right in front of me , main work. however, doesn't this.

if take monitors out of twin view mode, kde desktop on 19" , blank x window on wide screen ... not good.

system giving preference 19" , can't stop doing this.

way have of playing games @ moment, replace xorg.conf 1 sees 1 screen , restart x.

however, working on 19" ... can't thing single screen on wide screen.

i've tried sorts of cutting , pasting xorg.conf file , can't it. can please?
