Title:
  dual monitor display issues nouveau and xfce

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I right now am trying xfce as I have an old nvidia card. I have a
  geforce 5200fx. This card has issues with any advanced grapics
  handling at all. The newest nvidia drivers dont work for it. I have
  tried to load the drivers, and they crash me out to the black screen
  with the x icon. I tried to set the xorg.conf file for my second
  monitor, and for no apparent reason it ignores the settings I have
  entered. I tried to find monitor.conf, and lightdm monitor.conf and
  neither exist. I tried a new front end that was a little easier on my
  machine to see if it would load. For no apparent reason the machine
  refuses to acknowledge that I have a second monitor, and I want to ass
  a virtual resolution so that it can be used. Nouveau docs give no
  steps, and the only thing I get in aranbdr, is a refrence to VGA-1 and
  TV1. Which is odd because my card does not have a T.V. out. It does
  have a DVI out which is shows as disabled. At this point the fact that
  not only will x not recognize my second monitor, but that it shows a
  tv output leaves me to assume that there is a bug with X not being
  able to detect my second monitor, and also not allowing me to make any
  manual changes to the xconfig file.
