Hello,

You can compare the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file of Vector Linux and Elive ?

link to my xorg txt file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf; u can view it with browser)

Hmn, i trying to do some config (after little googling) to get tv-out via svideo it worked on my gf7600gs.
Its not a clone as usually, its separate x with own refresh rate and resolution.

I was trying to get linked both tv and crt desktops by moving mouse to right crt corner it jumps to tv screen (so i can run separate movie on it and same time work on crt) but it moves only mouse, how to get same thing for program window ?

add. I'm using elive_1.2.4_unstable, (first what i found couple weeks ago..) hmn can somebody share with code.. i will be happy by having stable...:>
