Well, it depends on how you define success. ;-)

I was able to get dualhead on my G4 pbook 1.5, but the colors were funky. I
tried 8 bit, 16 bit, 24 bit and 32 bit in my Xconfig, and all of them had the
same result - a sort of yellowish+purpelish haze.

I don't recall exactly what I did, but I seem to recall it was fairly simple -
like booting w/the 2nd monitor attached and mucking about in the KDE
display control panel.

That simplicity might also require having the right video driver in the X
config file (which I had done previously).
