that's really promising, as soon as i get a new mobo i'll try it out. 
i've never used x with dvi before.  i'm guessing that with the nvidia
drivers on i386 dual-head should work properly on both screens? 
whenever i buy new hardware i often find that it doesn't work like i
imagined, and i can imagine something silly like direct rendering only
working on one screen, or not being able to get both screens working
over dvi at the same time, or that sort of sillyness.  still, there's
a fine line between questions and therapy ;)

thanks for your help.
