Xorg.conf , nvidia 96xx and dual head failure

i cant get Xorg to work with nvidia driver at all.
here is where i am.
setup aurch linux [X]
setup xserver with NV driver 1 head[X]
setup dual head[]

ok so i cant even get nvidia drivers to work or dual head on the NV driver.
i dont have an xorg.conf setup but i have tried the xorg.conf from my fedora setup but it just black screened.

Ive tried everything i could think of or what arch wiki could. I came to aurch linux to learn more about linux (fedora holds your hand to much.) but i dont think i can figure this one out on my own.

Re: Xorg.conf , nvidia 96xx and dual head failure

serverman,

let me see if I understand your situation.

You are using the nvidia drivers and want to setup a dual screen with independent screens (?).

Without a xorg.conf one screen should work out of the box with one screen.

For the proprietary drivers you will need a minimal xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
    Identifier    "Configured Video Device"
    Driver        "nvidia"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Default Screen"
    Device        "Configured Video Device"
    DefaultDepth    24
EndSection

This still has only one screen, but can you try it and tell what happens ?

Re: Xorg.conf , nvidia 96xx and dual head failure

The easy way is just to run "nvidia-xconfig --twinview"
check the man page as well though, there are quite a few other options you can enable

Re: Xorg.conf , nvidia 96xx and dual head failure

both give me the same error out put. and that is with only one screen pluged in.
note i do have an intergated ATI card but it is disabled so i dont think it caused the error.
i forgot how i fixed this but back in fedora 9 I had issues with Nvidia drivers.
