[Linux4christians] lyricue on laptop

[Christina]

Hi Ben, Thanks for your quick reply.  I am a bit of a newbie to this
sort of thing so may not be expressing my problem well! I want to use a
single-screen machine (my laptop) in church. I currently use Opensong in
windows, and want to use linux (opensong does not work in linux).   Re
dual monitor:  I probably haven't used the right terminology there!  My
video card does not allow for dual screens, so I have to display same
thing on LCD and projector...   How do you run the display screen on a
virtual desktop? 

Cheers
Christina
