I set up FC8 using one monitor, now want to put it in use with

tell fc8 or X, whichever, "there's a new screen, reinitialize
yourself!"
Here's one way:
1. CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to a command line interface without graphics.
2. Log in as root.
3. Run this command: system-config-display --reconfig
4. Configure your display as desired.
5. CTRL+ALT+F7 to go back to the graphical console.
6. CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to restart X.
