Don't be quiet so sweeping.

I think I remember that the Mac won't talk to a second video card as
additional desktop if there was nothing connected to it at boot,
requiring a reboot to add a second card.  Is mirroring more friendly,
or does it also require a reboot?  (Or did they possibly fix this?)

Certainly, even though the Macintosh has gotten much more user-hostile
in the last few years (why do you think I gave it up after years of
being a loyal fan?), Linux has a ways to go to be so friendly.  But at
least Linux is heading in the right direction.


-kb, the Kent who once stood up at an Apple Developer's Conference and
asked (presciently, IHHO) whether the newly announced Extensions
folder wasn't going to merely shift System folder clutter instead of
cleaning it up.
