[Eientatsu]

How do you get composoting with multiple monitors?

you deserve a medal, that was awesome

but..could you get it to work on windows?

[java501]

very nice setup dude

[dacooter]

what are your system specs?

[Ck87JF]

This is cool ... and awesome that you used animusic to demo the video. :D

Anyway, my question; how do you get both monitors AND compiz?

I've only been able to get one monitor to have compiz, though perhaps it's because of what I'm using - nVidia GeForce 7300 GT and an onboard nVidia video card. the dedicated nVidia card has two outputs, but one is DVI, and I don't have the adapter for VGA.

Anyway ... do you have any tutorial for dual screen plus compiz?

Hi i have a question, i'm working with compiz on a ubuntu box but i wanna now how could you force the windows to maximize to only one monitor ?

Best Regards

I wish my dual head would work, my second monitor is my 50" plasma.

edit... dumped the crappy ATI and got a 8600gts. Runs like a champ!

same, i dumped a 4870 for a GTX 260

same performance, but the gtx actually works

Wow it runs really smoothly. On my laptop there's a bit of lag. What are your computer's specs?

[Olinux]

It's a Pentium D 3.0 GHz with 3 GB of DDR2 RAM and a GeForce 8600 GTS driving two 19" Viewsonic LCDs.

You should have got the core2duo instead.

[Olinux]

Core2 wasn't out when we put this machine together. It's sort of an an old pc....time to upgrade...probably to a core2 quad.

That would be sweet! I had to stick to 7.04 couldn't get the ATI composite to work. Hopefully it will work by 8.04

[fun4mylife]

8.04 The best thing ever!
