Are there any linux distros that have native dual monitor support?

Oops, could one of the mods move this to the correct forum?

Moved to UNIX/Linux forum, I think this is where you want to be.

Dual monitor support is a feature of X, and not necessarily the distro of *nix. There are tons of HOWTO's and FAQ's about dual monitor support and Xorg, for example one from the Gentoo Wiki is here. There are many more on Google, just search for "xorg dual monitors".

If you're new to *nix, then I'd probably suggest Ubuntu as a distro to start out with. It's supposed to be real easy to configure and use, and the apt package system is known for being easy too. Then you can apply any changes to your X config file for dual monitor support.

Or do a search of "multi-head monitors".
