This is in response to some emails I found in the archives online from
November 2004, but is very relevant to me today.

I have a laptop with the intel 855GM chipset and I have been trying to rig a
dual monitor setup for over a week now, tinkering with my xorg.conf file and
the suse utility sax2.  I would like to use both my laptop's display and a
19" Samsung 930b LCD Analog display.  I cannot get the kinks worked out of
it.  Right now when I boot with the attached xorg.conf file, upon X loading
I get both screens with a pale green display.  This doesn't freeze the
system, but I cannot kill X, which forces me to reboot.  I'm curious if the
person who posted this problem earlier obtained a solution or if perhaps
anyone else would like to guide me through this problem.

Thanks,

Michael Schroeder
