Sometimes it handy to configure two Desktops: one on a CRT monitor that can do stereo-graphics, and one on an LCD monitor for the more regular work, eg your refinement jobs with CCP4. For Nvidia cards you need to modify the xorg.conf file to have a section more or less like that: | |||
<code> | |||
Section "Monitor" | |||
Identifier "Monitor0" | |||
VendorName "Iiyama" | |||
ModelName "Vision Master Pro 512" | |||
DisplaySize 450 330 | |||
HorizSync 31.5 - 120.0 | |||
VertRefresh 50.0 - 150.0 | |||
Option "dpms" | |||
EndSection | |||
Section "Monitor" | |||
Identifier "Monitor1" | |||
VendorName "Philips" | |||
ModelName "150B" | |||
EndSection | |||

Note that one can think this is rather silly to define two card, two monitors, two cards, and two screens. | |||
However, that the only way I know that one monitor can be streo-enabled and the other one not. | |||
