Don't bother.. I just wondered whether you use the patch or not. <br>

I was using the patch when debugging X on the other machine... but not using it on this fresh install on the laptop...<div class="im"><br>

Try following ServerLayout section:<br>
<br>
Section "ServerLayout"<br>
Screen 0 "Default Screen" 0 0<br>
Screen 1 "DisplayLink Screen" RightOf "Default Screen"<br>
EndSection<br>

I thought these commands - like the positioning and RightOf/LeftOf - only worked if one was using xinerama or twinview or something? Anyway, I now have dual 'connected' monitors after mimicking your "ServerLayout" section. Well, only the mouse seems to be able to move between the screens - application windows don't go to the other screen and each screen has its own bottom task panel and top application panel thing.</blockquote>
