Openbox Multiple Monitor assistance

Currently using openbox and using the opensource mesa drivers for R9 270X.

I'm trying to connect two extra monitors. My primary monitor is center, connected with DVI. Then I have another one to the right via VGA, and one on the top of my primary thats connected HDMI.
Wondering if anyone could assist me configuring these.

Re: Openbox Multiple Monitor assistance

That shouldn't be too hard. There is plenty information on the wiki. Multi-head is a good term to search for.

EDIT: Before I forget: Welcome to the forums. Please read the forum etiquette and don't forget to do your own research before asking.

I've tried multi-head from wiki, everything fucks up and I can't use anything and I'm force to revert it and restart.
