Dual displays with a Mac mini

Dock can be positioned with OnyX or even easier with http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/17634 "toPositionTheDock". have fun!

Did anyone try the TrippleHead2Go Splitter from Matrox ??? http://shopmatrox.com/usa/products/datasheet.asp?ID=790

What happens when rotating the monitorsetting by 90 or 270 degrees?

LD: What are you talking about? I've read all comments and links and have found no answer to my question.

How do you get the dock to be all the way to the right side of the screen?

Now that is actually quite interesting, kinda a good thing that it doesnt split the dock aswell.

A little bit pricey, but well worth it if it means working with larger documents is even easier.

How much trouble is it to install the Matrox dualHead2Go? Do you need software for the mac or is it just plug and play?

UncleJerry, Screen Spanning Doctor website says:

Mac mini

These machines can NOT use the patch:

Unfortunately the patch does not work with ANY Mac mini configuration.
It is not possible to use both the DVI and the VGA part of the display connector simultaneously.

We just tested one of those DualHeads2Go on a Toshiba M3 laptop - looks like the box will mirror onto both displays unless its set to the right resolutions;

2048 x 768 @60Hz, 32bpp / 16bpp
2048 x 768 @85Hz, 32bpp / 16bpp
2560 x 1024 @60Hz, 32bpp / 16bpp

So - if you can force the mac to display any of those resolutions - it should force the box to span instead of mirror

Note - if you do play with it on a Windoze machine - download the later driver set from the Matrox website, the one of the cd was useless for our toshiba and ibm lappies at work when testing...

Deedas, perhaps reading the links would help. To help you I've even put the relevant info right here in the comment thread. You could try reading that as well.

UncleJerry, how are you going to get that script to work with a Mac Mini?

If its supposed to be one huge monitor, why is the dock not split between the two monitors? Is this a haxie I do not know about?

for free, I use the script "Screen Spanning Doctor" on my 14" ibook with a 20" HP CRT monitor. Works great and I can set higher rez on the big monitor than what I can get on the ibook. Good things come free.
