Q: I have to figure out how to run dual monitors on Linux Mandrake. Me, in the next hour or so, if possible, know (at work and the boss needs me to figure this out). I need it, so its an extended desktop or you do not know how to do that, just a desktop setup where a u0026quot; u0026quot, in a monitor and desktop u0026quot 2; u0026quot, open in the other. I have a Matrox G400 dual monitor card, so I was in the bag. Can someone please help me out here?!? Thanks! : D
Re:Err…I'm lost…Oh well…Thanks anyway. I thought I already added these into the startup files. But when it boots it fails when searching for the eth0 connection.
::chuckles::
Re:Edit the startup files to give eth0 an ip address and make sure the module is loaded and all.
Re:I tried, says, "Device or resource busy"
Re:So if eth0 does show up, give it an ip address
"man ifconfig" for specific info on how to do that, but it should be something close to:
"ifconfig eth0 10.10.10.10 255.255.255.0" (ifconfig network <interface> <ip> <subnet mask>).
Re:Nutin. eth0 doesn't show me an inet address, broadcast, or mask…
sighs
Re:What does "ifconfig -a" tell you?
Re:Maybe…if you can tell me why my mandrake box won't connect to the network! It's driving me insane!

EDIT: Do I get paid for this? 
Re:Can't find anything on this setup on the Matrox website. Could you post a link?

Look on freshmeat.net and matrox's website.

Re:Check out Matrox's site, they have a program that will help you set this up. Also you need XF86 4.x and xinerama.
