Ya, Sabayon has great support for dual monitors (more of a Debian person myself though :)). What graphics card are you using?

EVGA 256-P2-N541-T2 GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16

hi nice vid too bad that there aren't a lot of views anyway i wanted to ask: what do you think is better ubuntu linux or sabayon linux???? please reply

[pcmedianet]

Tough choice, but if I had to make a decision, Ubuntu would be better. Adding and removing apps is much easier, the full distro only needs one CD image instead of Sabayon's DVD image, and Dell actually delivers new computers with Ubuntu as an option so it does have big-company support.
