Dual Screen

[Nirva2]

Hi,

 

I've been using iDeneb as my first operating system for more than 6 months now. I'm extremely pleased with it.

There are several small problems that I hope to solve over time. One of them is the possibility of attaching a second monitor to my laptop. I heard it was possible to use dual screen with the osx86 project, so I'm hopeful.

 

My laptop has a Nvidia 9600GT Graphical card. I use the NVdarwin 1.2.5 driver.

My laptop has a VGA and a HDMI output port. When I attach a second monitor to the VGA port, all my screens ( the external monitor AND my laptop screen ) turn black. I can't recover from this, so I have to unplug the power each time...

 

Does anyone have a solution for me ?

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

PS ( I haven't tried the HDMI port yet, cause I don't have any HDMI capable screen )
