Can i just use two gfx cards connected up to different monitors... or do i need a duel head card like some of the matrox ones.
Either should work.
Its just ive got 2 gfx cards and i would like to use them in X when im debuging programs. will i have problems if they are different cards with diff memory etc...?
If you're using X4 this should be relatively straightforward (this kind of thing is called xinerama in X4). If you're using X3 it's a little less simple, but still possible. There are loads of HOWTO docs out there on this - try:

(or ask google for some more)
