Hi all,

for those now or in the future that wish to use this card:
nvidia quadro nvs 285      device pci id: 0x0165

the magic words are:
        Option     "DualHead"   "true"
There exists a new option called this with the modular xorg nvidia
driver.
IFF you use the latest pkgsrc. =3D=3D> CVS. as at 9/8/7.


here's my whole config xorg.conf below.

Note, no Xinerama required.
And as a result of the way it's now done,
Xscreensaver runs across the 2 screens at once.
Whereas with Xinerama, it ran 2 screensavers.:).

cheers,
Paul.

Can you please send the important bit of the configuration to
<netbsd-users@NetBSD.org>? That might help other people in the future.

	Thanks in advance
