The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Xorg 3 monitor display

Zones: FreeBSD, Unix Operating Systems, Video Cards
Tags: Xorg Foundation, xorg, 7.3, FreeBSD 6.2
I currently have my FreeBSD 6.2 build with xorg 7.3 working with dual monitors on a dual-head ati 9200 video card.  I recently put in a 2nd, single head ati radeon 9260 to use a 3rd monitor.

For the life of me I am unable to get the 3rd monitor to display.  I think I have all of the necessary pieces in the xorg.conf but can't seem to get it to work.  I've attached my current xorg.conf with the 2nd card and 3rd monitor defined.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.
