newbie question

Hi,

I've just started working with CR this week, so I'm sure this is 
something dumb, but I haven't been able to figure it out.  I got the 
crdemo.config working fine. 

My aim is to have a tiled display on one machine with one tile on each 
of the two outputs on my video card (quadro FX 1500).  I have my 
xorg.conf file set up to have two separate X screens.  I've also tried 
it with twinview enabled just in case.

 The 'display_string' attribute seemed to have no effect before I 
commented it out.  I had thought the display_string would send it to one 
video output or the other. 

I'm running cr1.9 on Mandriva 2007 64bit, Athlon X2.

With the config file below, I get no errors, but nothing renders (no 
windows open) and the fps line never shows up in the console.  When I 
comment out everything related to server2, everything runs as expected, 
with an empty app window and a single atlantis window.  I was expecting 
two atlantis windows with the second server in use.  Any help is 
appreciated.

thanks,

morris
