I had a composite display set previously with Nvidia
driver on a different laptop. Is this currently possible
with Haswell?

I've in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "X.org Configured"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        Screen      1  "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"
        InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "Monitor Model"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor1"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "Monitor Model"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "intel"
        BusID       "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Card1"
        Driver      "intel"
        BusID       "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

and so on, which is just copied from the previous
Nvidia setup.

This doesn't work. Both screens show identical
output, i.e. exact copy of each other.
(I've an HDMI monitor attached to a laptop).

Please advise

Thanks

Anton
