Ok - I notice that at work, all our developers have dual LCD's or CRT's. They all run the same Windows XP SP2 image I created for them however their Dell boxes all have simply one PCI-Express card. The card then has a splitter simular to this.

This allows them to go in XP display properties and set a 2nd LCD after the "initialize" it.

Can this be done in Linux as well or do I need to have dual video cards? I am currently using a Nvidia 7800GTX with dual DVI outputs however if Linux can allow me to use the splitter and add the 2nd LCD, that would be exactly what I am looking for.

Thanks for any possible information!
