As much as I love *nix for server environments, there is one cardinal flaw in X that keeps me running Windows for my desktop workstation.

CONFIGURING XORG.CONF FOR DUAL MONITORS IS HELL.

Once X reaches a point where I can install my distro, install the video driver and it JUST WORKS, I'll never need to work in Windows again. Dont get me wrong, I'm very *nix proficient, but fuck - as it stands, setting up dual screen is a fucking PITA. Mind you, that's if you're working with Nvidia. ATI? Forget it.

If anyone happens to know a workaround for this, please let me know.
