Hi, there,
I just did a fresh installation of fedora 10 x86_64 on my desktop. The graphics card of the system is a Intel 82Q35 Express Integrated card. I connected two monitors to the system, both of them are 1680x1050 LCD panels.

The system automatically detected the resolution of the monitors correctly (much better than the last time I tried this!). However, I can get the dual head work.

I installed system-config-display through yum, and when I tried to enable dual-head from there. I got the following error:


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 212, in ok
if card.getDescription() == self.secondVideocardOptionMenu.get_menu().get_acti ve().get_data("NAME"):
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_data'



Can anyone give me a hint what is wrong? thanks!

I can get the dual monitor working, thanks to this link:

But it only works without compiz-fusion. If you don't need compiz-fusion, then the above link will get you going.
