Not a technical one, but I have been coming to meetings for maybe a year now, and have not had a chance to introduce myself, and more importantly, haven't found out who you all are. With no topic tonight, can we just have an re-introduction of the members so we know who these emails are coming from? thanks
As I'm getting a second LCD in the mail tomorrow, I'm probably going to bring up Xorg/Xinerama dual head setups. I hope somebody will know something more than I do :) Eric Mike Leo wrote:

Two LCDs - is this a home setup?

Yeah, it's sitting here in my dorm room single-monitored right now. I can't stop thinking about the dual monitor setup I'll have going by tomorrow night... Eric
At work, we have a few folks with dual LCDs (only 1280x1024 resolution, though). They have rotated the monitors 90 degrees so they are longer from top to bottom, and then put the two monitors side by side. This seemed strange to me at first, but the folks who did it like the arrangement. This was just a thought for your consideration.

The stands on the two LCDs are not built for this. It sounds interesting though. Eric Andy Stewart wrote:

Eric> The stands on the two LCDs are not built for this. It sounds Eric> interesting though. We just got some Samsung SyncMaster 204bs here at work. 20" LCD monitors, nice and bright and crisp. 1600x1200 native resolution, Analog and DVI inputs you can flip between easily. Monitor has a stand (and Windows software) where you can flip the screen 90 degrees to go from wide to tall aspect. It's very nice. I'm thinking of getting some for home at some point, if only because of the space savings on the desks. John
