Switching primary display on Qadro FX 700

[afontes]

Hello,

Just installed RedHat 9.0 and the new NVidia driver, great improvement on the new installer.

I have two monitors attached to the card, both CRTs, the order that the monitors are detected is not the same as the boot order, and my second monitor is detected as the primary display. :confused:

How to I change this order?

Added

Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT-0"

to my first device section, and

Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT-1"

to my second device section.

:D

You can also use RightOf and LeftOf - I believe the sample XF86Config in /usr/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0 shows this.

Sorry Andy,

I forgot to mention I am not using TwinView, I have each display as a separate X screen.

You can still use RightOf or LeftOf while using dual independent displays. For example:

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "AGP"
Screen 0 "Screen AGP0"
Screen 1 "Screen AGP1" RightOf "Screen AGP0"
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

My current config...

Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Anaconda Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen1"
Screen 1 "Screen0" Relative "Screen1" 1280 256
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
