most laptops don't need software drivers to do mirror monitors, they usually just have a function key to turn on the external vga port.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/7/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Tim Bowden

Hi all,<br><br>I'm wanting to set up my laptop to work with an external projector. I<br>have an nvidia card with the binary drivers. So far so good. The<br>problem comes when I setup twinview. It treats the two monitors as one
<br>big desktop- not what I want, particularly as they have different<br>resolutions, and the projector will rarely be connected. I'd like the<br>two displays to be independent, but still be able to move windows<br>between the two if need be. What is the recommended solution to this?
