Hi, I have a Radeon 9800 pro with two monitors hooked up to it to make a dual monitor setup. I was wondering if there is a way to set it up so you can do one thing on one monitor and somethign else on another, like in windows. Right now it just does everything as if I had one monitor, only it displays it on both. So they both show the exact same thing.
Is it possible to set it up in the way I mentioned? and if so how?
