TwinView on Inspiron 8200

[SirBoo]

How do I get the TwinView to work on my TV and Laptop display at the same time?

When I enable twinview it only displays a picture on the TV.
The laptop display goes blank :-?

I have RedHat9 and the latest Nvidia driver.

Does anyone know what to do?
Here's what I have entered in XF86Config
----------------------------------------------------------

I would be a happy camper if anyone could help me watch movies on my tv. :)

It looks like you have the Option "ConnectedMonitor" commented out.. you need that.

I have exactly the same problem and the line "ConnectedMonitor" in my XF86Config is rightly uncommented.
If you think it can be useful you can find my configuration files in the thread I opened yesterday about problems with TwinView.
Is there anyone who can see the same video output on moniotr and TV???
(Using nvidia gforce and linux, I mean)
Bye, Flavio

I have tried using the "ConnectedMonitor" option but that doesn't help. Does anyone know what I should put there to get it to use my laptop display?

Whatever I do I just can't get a picture on both screens at the same time. :-(
