Re: Dual-Monitor Problems

Boy oh boy, today has been talking about several problems that I have
been dealing with lately. I have a Dell 4600 running redhat 9. I just
installed a Radeon 9200 pci video card. I am trying to run two
monitors. I can't seem to get the on-board video and the new Radeon
card working together. I installed the rpm package and ran fglrxconfig
to configure the display adapter.

Anyone have any luck with the Radeon 9200?
