I just got that working at home the other day... I have a Geforce 2 MX card
connected to my (PAL) TV through S-video and to my Panasonic LCD projector
through a long VGA cable.
I had trouble getting the picture to show up on the proj and the TV at the
same time, until I found the correct XF86 options. Here's what the relevant
part of my XF86Config file looks like:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Monitor 800x600"
HorizSync 30.0 - 50.0
VertRefresh 60.0 - 60.0
Option "NVagp" "0"
Option "MetaModes" "800x600,800x600; 640x480,640x480"
Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50"
Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "60"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"
Option "TwinView" "1"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "TV, CRT"
Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Clone"
EndSection
The trick that did it for me was the "SecondMonitor" and
"TwinViewOrientation" lines.
