Topic: Mac OS X Multiple Monitors?

[TNJazz]

Is it possible to run multiple monitors under OS X?  (Actually OS X 86... )

If so, how do I set it up?  I have one monitor on the AGP card and a second monitor on a card in a PCI slot...

Mac gurus please step up?

all i ever had to do was plug both monitors in.  then arrange them in the system prefs

I should probably elaborate a little.

I'm running OS X 10.4.4 (OSX 86) on my P4 Dell Dimension desktop right now.  Only problem is, I have an AGP card and a PCI card (one for each monitor).  I see both cards listed in system preferences, but only one is active (the AGP card).  Is there way to activate the PCI card and stretch the desktop like there is in Windows?  If not, would a dual head AGP card do the trick perhaps?

Guess I'll find out tonight.  Just picked up a dual head Radeon (hopefully it supports QE).  This hacking around stuff is pretty cool - I haven't done anything like this since I hot-rodded my Tivo a couple of years back...
