cleartype on dual monitor setup, one is RGB and second is BGR

[Guest]

Hi all,

I have these two lcd monitors. One of them has RGB pixel arrangement and the
other one has BGR pixel arrangement. Is it possible to configure cleartype
(or something else) so that the fonts appear as good as they are supposed to
appear. Now I am getting a nasty eyeadache inducing font with a red tinge.

Thanks,
Nachi

edges.../Clear Type.

Will adjust cleartype so that the monitor in use looks good. But I
don't think there would be any way of having separate settings for two
monitors connected to the same machine, if that is the case

Actually thats the case. It's a dual monitor setup (using nvidia twinview)
and the left one has BGR alignment and the right one has RGB alignment.

I guess I'll have to sell off the BGR one. There doesn't seem to be a way to
apply two different cleartype settings to the two monitors.
