First, here's what I'm running:

- WinXP/ Mandrake 9.2 rc2 dual boot
- grub bootloader with Windows as default
- KDE 3.1
- main vid card: GEFORCE 4 Ti4200 AGP
- secondary vid card: MATROX Mystique PCI
- 2 monitors

Ok, I can't seem to figure out how to get the secondary monitor working.
I've searched and searched online and found nothing of tremendous use. I
would really appreciate it if someone could explain exactly what I need to
do in order to get dual monitor support working.

Please be as detailed as possible, I've only just started to use Linux
today.

Thanks.

You mean, you read the NVidia documentation about Twinview and didn't
understand it? Or do you mean you didn't read it yet?

Here it is exactly: read the NVidia documentation.
