Well, I have never used two monitors on my desktop :-P. So i don't have
problems if two monitores are not supported.

I'd just like to know how good it renders under Linux (and most
important, with Flavio's cheats).

OT: How does it render under Windows?

No problem in that, when I want to use TV/Out I commonly use my
laptop ;-).
