Ya, and unfortunately, I haven't got my dual-head to work with recent
distro X.org either, probably because I haven't found how how/where/what
to set in Xorg.conf for new version (and my old one doesn't "just work"
on new X.org either). So I've got an old x.org version pinned, even
though I'm pretty sure that a newer X.org is probably better, dispite my
lack of ability to configure it.
Go figure ;-)
