Hi, i have a computer with 2 monitors, main monitor is a 24" ViewSonic and the other Samsung SyncMaster 204B.
Problem: when running Zorin Live from dvd the main screen connected via HDMI stays black. Only the Samsung has a screen.
Does Zorin not support HDMI? Or will the display work after installing Zorin?
Thanks in advance for any pointers.

I cannot speak for running dual monitors in live mode but I have the same ViewSonic Monitor and never had an issue with VGA/DVI/HDMI - I went back to VGA as I prefer my external speakers!

Thanks, suppose it will work after installing nvidia instead of the nouveau driver.
