I'm very new to Linux and just installed Mint 14 last night. I have to say, I'm falling in love with it so far.
I have a dual monitor setup that I would like to use on my Mint box but I can't quite seem to get it to work. After installing the OS, I went to Display and turned Mirroring off and set the screen sizes that I wanted. After hitting Apply, my screens were all messed up. It appears that it's not using the correct NVidea graphics driver. Can anyone help me install this correctly so that I can use my dual monitors.
