I've looked around, read some mans and stuff but I can't figure out how to make it so gdm will load onto both screens, of even so it will load only to my secondary head which is my monitor. Of course I don't want to have to turn on my projector to log in!
I've tried puttying DISPLAY=:0.1 in a few places and I've looked through some GDM config files but I can't find anything...
In X, everything gets displayed onto my :0.1 screen because at the beginning of my .xinitrc I've put DISPLAY=:0.1 ... But of course GDM gets loaded before this is read. How can I tell X on loading that I want everything on :0.1 ?

Hope I've explained my problem clearly enough!

Have I explained myself clearly? Just to check - does anyone understand what I'm asking, or does no one know yet? Thanks!
