Secondary monitor (first time) - UrugEci - 12-09-2010
http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/usb-gadgets/c609/
I bought this monitor.
it displays in the display setting just like it would two monitors.
But this is my first time using two monitors.
And sites to read up on things?
I just want it to have an ssh window open on it. Other things would be cool.
I really just got it so that I could setup an ssh window there so that I could play full-screen games and watch my server at the same time.
I have figured out that right now it's displaying like an extension on the right side of my screen.

I'm not quite sure what you're asking. It seems you already know how to use and configure this monitor.
RE: Secondary monitor (first time) - UrugEci - 12-09-2010
^ No I don't.
I have it set up I just don't know how to use it for what I want.

Not sure what a ssh window is Oo
RE: Secondary monitor (first time) - UrugEci - 12-10-2010
It's set up...
And I know how to use ssh...
I wanna be able to play a game fullscreen and hit a hotkey (or even just hit the pause screen and mouse over to the other like I already can) But without it taking my game out of fullscreen.

Install the drivers (If there are any, check for a CD)
Plug the monitor in (USB)
Control panel > display section (Configure is as 2 separate screens, then when you have a window, drag it across to the other monitor)

*sigh*
I have it setup and working.

oh! You want to keep a game in full screen. You can't do this by default, with anything full screen whether it be a game or video - i don't know of any programs that facilitate this either.
