To have two different screen outputs??? Like have one connected to the computer screen and the other to the tv watching a movie??? Kind of like ubuntu that has two desktops, but can you output that to two different screens.
Thanks.

Howz!!!!!?

plug both in... that pretty much it other then setting the resolution.. which in windows its just right click and properties/settings and you should see moniter 1 and 2.. since my 2 is to the left of my 1 i drag it to the left and hit extend my windows desktop and that's it... i havent used linux in a long time so i can't tell ya how to do it in that but its probably close to the same

you can also use 2 moniTERS as a single one so you get uber widescreen :D

Mines not very modern :/

i use my Matrox parhelia 128 (please don't flame me) and various adapters to use my computer as a sort-of media center. in my room, my bed is one of those high sleeper ones, with a bed at the top and a desk underneath. i have my computer at my desk and my tv on my wall at bed level. its all set up so i can watch dvd's etc. from my bed, on my tv and control my computer with my wireless keyboad and mouse. while video's are showing on the tv the computer screen carries on doing computer things (or a screensaver) because the tv is set up as what's called a feature display. if you set up a second monitor as a featuse display it shows videos playing in programs like powerdvd fullscreen (some other programs can use feature displays too, but powerdvd is the only one i know of).

@ kaiser, how do you do that? because my graphics card has provision for up to 3 monitors. if i can use my onboard as well then i can have 4. (first i need to find enough monitors) imagine uber-widescreen gaming with 4 monitors...
