From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021218 Description of problem: Anaconda defaults dualhead display setup to unuseable configuration. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install phoebe to dualhead display, using for example Matrox G450 card. 2. 3. Actual Results: Monitor 2 displays exactly the same contents as monitor 1. Expected Results: Anaconda should give dualhead display users the option of configuring either giant merged display, two independent display screens, or the current default of two identical displays. Additional info: SuSE defaults to two independent display screens, which is at least useable. Most users would prefer a giant merged display, which is the Matrox default on Windows or Linux, i.e., two 1600x1200 displays form a merged 3200x1200 display.
