nV News Forums - View Single Post - DFP and TV: I want DFP to be the primary display!

I spent a few frustrating days configuring the card for DVI and TV output.
Then I realized that no matter what I do, the TV is always the first, and the DVI is always the second monitor (ConnectedMonitor doesn't specify order, only devices to initialize).

Ok, but then Xinerama will get told that the first device is a TV, so the login screen and new windows will get opened on the TV, not on the DVI...

This is really annoying and I did not yet find out how to resolve it.
