Dual Screen on SXF 6870

I am trying to get a second monitor to work on my rig. I have both monitors connected to dvi but the second monitor just goes to sleep. I am still on snow leopard btw. Many thanks for your help.

Try setting GraphicsEnabler=No in your boot.plist file. You can test it without editing boot.plist by typing it during chameleon's boot screen, just select your osx partition and type:

-v GraphicsEnabler=No

(-v is for booting in verbose mode)

Will do. Thanks.

what works for the 2GB version might work for your 1GB too

This worked for me also.

I am running 10.6.8 and I made the change using MultiBeast => Customization => Boot Options => 64-bit GraphicsEnabler=No or 64-bit GraphicsEnabler=No .

No need to hand edit file.
