   How about something nVidia based with dual outputs on a single
card?  I think (although I HOPE I'm wrong) that this is the only way
to get 3D acceleration on both heads with Linux.  You have to be using
nVidia's binary drivers with the TwinView feature.  Just check the
driver README for (un)supported cards before you buy.

Of _course_ it's the murder weapon.  Who would frame someone with a fake?
