Hmmm - interesting point.  Having never even been in the presence of a
dual headed system, I hadn't thought of this.  I would imagine that the
card is dual-head capable - it has one DVI and one VGA port.
I haven't mucked with the X server conf except to set up the proprietary
nvidia driver ... how would one go about checking this?  If it's the
case, my ideal setup would be that the exact same things would be pushed
out both the DVI and VGA (at least for the time being) - how do I do
that?  8)
This is an entirely new area for me.
