Adding a monitor to driver station
We had a thought that it would be good to add a second monitor to the classmate and user for the driver station. I can get it setup in developer mode no problem, the problem comes in when I go into driver mode and cannot get to the desktop to configure it. Has anyone had any luck looking at the desktop for the driver user to allow configuration?
Currently we are using a startech.com usb to vga adapter

I understand the rules about powering it from a battery on the driver station and that kind of stuff, I would like more into knowledge or thought from anyone who may have tried this.
