Hi,

I'm running Opensuse.

I have an Nvidia 8400 GS. I have a VGA and DVI.

I connected a monitor to the VGA and I plan to connect my TV to the
DVI.

How to manage screens in OpenSuse ? Is there a software ?

Hi
Have a look here;
http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:NVIDIA_the_hard_way

I run the nvidia-settings as root user (gnomesu nvidia-settings) and
create an xorg.conf and use that.
