I've got dual head mode to work on XFree86 4.2 on my P2120. Ignore the font and input sections, I've only left them in for completeness. The file specifies the following four modes:
$ startx -- -layout IntLayout (default)
[internal display only 1280x768; external monitor can be attached, but will show same picture distorted]
$ startx -- -layout ExtLayout
[external display only 1600x1200; internal display can be turned on, but will show same picture distorted]
Here comes the good stuff:
$ startx -- -layout DualLayout
[internal display runs at 1280x768 as ":0.0" and external monitor runs at 1600x1200 as ":0.1"; windows can be started on either display but can't be moved across]
$ startx -- -layout XineLayout
[internal display runs at 1280x768 and external at 1024x768 (note same number of lines); both monitors side-by-side form one big desktop (aka Xinerama mode) and windows can be moved arbitrarily between the two, or even be placed on the edge]
I haven't gotten DVD playback to work in the latter two modes. It would be nice to have the movie on one screen and the controls on the other. Ah well ...
