HD Install :: Two monitors



I think he doesn't want X, but only console fb VT's on a multihead setup, i.e. with /dev/fb*

Maybe you can use fbset?  Or maybe you need to install another driver (check which fb's are installed) and there seems to be CONFIG_FB_MATROX_MULTIHEAD in dsl.config

Or you could try replacing it with directfb or something...

but I've really only done multihead setups with X.

It doesn't work :( But it is not that i whant.

I need frame buffer. We use directFB libraries. And i want that first console was on fb0(first monitor), and fb1 on second console(second monitor).

ps: sorry for mistakes

Like I quoted from the howto, normal fb multihead is only possible with Matrox or Hercules cards..
Don't know about DirectFB though...
