I have tried everything I can think of and can't get a multi monitor setup working. Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
My setup:
- Asus G75VW with nVidia 670M (supports 3 external monitors via VGA/HDMI/DP - http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20121023062214AA7o5jc)
- Samsung 27" LCD
- (2) LG 22" LCDs

VGA-0 is my LG, and LVDS-0 is my laptop screen. They are both working properly right now with no xorg.conf enabled during boot. HDMI-0 is connected to the Samsung and is black. DP-0 will be used with the second LG once I get 2 working!

What am I missing to get 2-3 external monitors working?
