 How to stretch Puppy across two monitors?
Subject description: Racy 5.2.2 |
|
I want to stretch NOP across these two flat screens, coming out of one video card...works with Windoze on here but want to get it going with this NOP that I have.
Checking the XFCE config doesn't give me the choice of two monitors.
Do I need to change something in the Puppy configuration before i can set up XFCE?

Hey Steve, have you tried Zarfy? I use it all the time to stretch a desktop screen from my laptop to TV.
