You're back...
Yikes! How did you manage to put that graphics card into your Pentium 111? Isn't this a pci-e type card? I'm guessing you have some kind of adapter in place in order to connect this hardware.Well, here i am again, trying to get a dual screen working on my old compaq p3 with a nvidia 8400gs installed.
That aside, here are some initial thoughts:
- --It appears you have the Twinview option enabled, but the Twinview Identifier is commented out --Why?
--I think the "virtual" setting in xorg.conf works with Xinerama only, so try this mode instead of Twinview.
--Remember to look at your xorg.0.log file for additional information as to what is going on with your configuration.
With the driver installed, you should be able to set up a dual monitor display with the following command at the terminal:
Code: Select all
nvidia-xconfig --twinview
Code: Select all
nvidia-settings
at the terminal, you will get a nice gui to play with... Note that I have not tested nvidia-settings in Puppy, however I did not encounter any errors while putting this together, so it should be good to go...
Hope this helps,
Monsie
