[kjacobs]

Thanks fellas and thanks for the input....

I have run the recipe (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshootin...om_scratch) to clear all the proprietary drivers and rebooted. Presently this is what I am showing in terminal....

So as far as I can tell, this is running the open driver and "seeing" the card fine. Not sure about the UNCLAIMED display:1.....I presently have cloned displays on my 2 screens. I have tried setting unchecking mirror displays in DISPLAY, but cannot seem to get it to extend the desktop on the two screens....
