We did not yet try getting monitor information from other distributions to
use with BL2 but should it not be possible to look at what is in
XF86Config and use that information with BL2?

SuSE 6 also sets things up for each monitor properly and will reconfigure
automatically if you change monitors, and it runs much faster than Corel
Linux.
