[Aes]

how can i dual monitor?
how do i install msn? (wine wont open the installation thing)

im using Ubuntu


that should be it.
if i have more it will be in this thread. this can also be used for other people who need help with linux.

not sure about the dual monitoring, but for msn, you could try a clone like amsn or gaim

Gaim is installed by default. Find it at applications>internet.

Its pretty self explanatory to add an msn account there.

Amsn may be installed via the synaptic package manager or by typing this into a terminal:
Code:

sudo apt-get install amsn

i use kopete for msn. but for duial monitoring you will have to read a guide.

Here is a easier description for each.
Xinerama is when you have one main desktop and the other screen you could put your browser in ro whatever. like widnows sorta
TwinView you should know lol
Merged FB is the same as Xinerama basically.
BigDesktop is when you have both screens the same resoultion and games/desktop and everything goes into both of the screens making one big ass screen.

BMX that is sorta old lol just do this. Right click desktop and select change desktop background
