It has the Intel GM965/GL960 graphics controller.

can do it.

I've tried thus far has worked. The best I've been able to
do is to actually use the Ubuntu config file, which at
least displays on the digital monitor. Tweaking the config
(changing PCI address, changing driver to vesa) switches the
output from DVI to VGA, but I cannot get both displayed at
the same time. I'd love to have an extended desktop.

On 27-11-2007 I posted a message on this subject with a
solution. You'll
find the information below. However, not being able to get a
better
resolution on the second monitor, I stopped trying to get it
right, it
simply took me too much time. Maybe you can find out more.
NB. Since I have a graphics card from ATI, I don know what
driver will
work for you.
Earlier message:
===
Dual head: I got it working also by using the right items in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf after installing the necessary driver by
the command:
yum install kmod-fglrx (This is for the ATI card)
My copy of xorg.conf is:
=========

===============
The desktop is stretched now over the two monitors, which
was my aim.
The only thing still bothering me is the resolution of the
second
monitor: 800x600, even though 1024x768 is mentioned in
xorg.conf.
End-of-earlier-message

Hope this helps
B.
