Depends on the graphics card, the drivers, and how you want the
projector to work (e.g. clone desktop, extend desktop...).

Norman,

Most of the projectors I have worked with can simply be plugged into the computer the same as with a monitor. The only thing I have ever had to configure is sometimes the monitor section in xorg.conf, but that is usually not necessary. If possible try the projector before hand.

Regards,
John
