I was tempted to respond to the above troll in kind, but I don't want to derail my own thread.

You just did.

Hmm. I just noticed a couple days ago that svn spring only shows on one screen. I don't think it used to do that, but my copies of 75b1 and 75b2 aren't working right now. I'll test more later.
Windows, using the better of my two screens.

I'm sorry i voted windows dual but that is the truth. I get twice as much fps on windows, and that is just too brutal to give up.

linux dualscreen 2x1280x1024 with twinview on a 6800gt

no performance drop compared to windows in my case

Looks like at least 28 other Windows users and 3 Linux users are as unlucky as me.

linux dualscreen 2x1280x1024 with twinview on a 6800le @ 6800gt (unlocked pipelines + overclock)

Also no performance drop to windows in my case.

BTW twinview pwns compared to dualview!

Nice to see I'm not the only Linux dual screen user here. I think properly configured you shouldn't get an FPS drop, but I wouldn't be able to compare directly because I never tried windows on this box. Keep those votes comming!

btw Tired I loled at your post that went into the spam purgatory.

Oh well no option for Mac single screen which is what I currently use. Once I can get Ubuntu working fully on my computer I might move to Linux single screen but that will probably take a while.

Sorry I didn't know there was a mac version.

It isn't up to date and only sort of works which is why it isn't official. That's also why I am working on making Ubuntu work on my Mac.
