Wow. I do not know the answer, but I would like to know how you set this up
in the first place.

Can you use two(2) adapters? I have a pair of Matrox Millenium IIs, one 8
Megabyte, the other 2 Megabyte, with an extra 17"(it was from my previous
setup). Also, can the monitors use different refresh rates? The 17 does not
do a v refresh as high as the 21.

I would love to use my 2nd monitor for palletes and toolbars (visaj, adobe
illustrator, corel draw), then use my 21 for the program or canvas,
depending on what I am doing.

The pager would be awesome in this config!

Any ideas?

PS. Of course right now I cannot even access the internet from linux, after
i put in an ISDN modem. I read the isdn4linux faq and got pretty scared, so
am using the win95 mail ;-(
