I finally got around to buy myself 2 monitors and setup dual-monitor. The 19” one I had before went over to father’s desk, and I got two of these 19” samsung beauties. The visual goes really well with the rest of the pc too. The bright black frame and blue lights are dead-on what I wanted.
So far, it is working amazingly well. In windows, it just spreads over the desktop, though, it doesn’t do the same with the task bar ![]()
In linux, I used nvidia-settings to set up as twinview, one left of the other (or one right of the other, whatever fits). So now I have a huge 2880×900 desktop, times three. I’m using virtual desktops, grouping things I need together. So, for example, desktop 1 is Firefox + programming stuff, desktop 2 is command lines and e-mail and desktop 3 is msn and irc. Since KDE saves my session, even if I shut down and come back the next morning, everything will still be the same
That’s it, I was just boasting a little about my new awesome hardware.
