After connecting the second monitor, the only way to get it to work is with 'mirror', which isn't what I want it for.

If I select a display resolution for it, I get the following error:

requested position/size for CRTC 148 is outside the allowed limit: position=(1908, 0), size=(1024, 768), maximum=(1920, 1920)

I'm on 12.04, with AMD HD Radeon 6950, Post-update drivers.

I appreciate anybodies help with this. Thanks.

I'm heading in the direction of a three monitor set up and hence suspect I need to go the dual video card route. At the moment, I've a Radeon X1900GT driving two 19" monitors which I'd like to keep and augment with something like a Radeon 5570 which would drive a 22" display. As such, I'm just wondering… >>> More
