I don't know if this be of any help but yesterday evening I succeded in
configuring a Matrox G550 Dual Head on my PC so I can now use my new
monitor and my old one on the same PC.
I post you my XF86Config-4 file: I hope it will help you...you can take
it as a canvas and substitute the features of your video cvard and
monitor...
See what you cando with this and If you have problems don't hesitate
writing me!
