Here you go. nvidia GeForce 5500 PCI with with nvidia driver from livna.
one monitor out going to flat panel and one s-video tv-out going to a
projector.  i use this as my media center to have xine plays dvds, etc.
so i have the xine control screen on the monitor and the output of xine
set to :0.1 so the video plays on the projector to a 50" screen.  it
works rather well.
