Re: Xorg with multiple cards

Le 15/05/08 à 18:02, Mike Ginsburg téléscripta :
A question to all of your xorg experts.

I'm running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p8 with xorg-7.3.1. Up until today I was
running on an PCIe RV280 (9200 Pro) with a dvi splitter to give me 2
monitors.

Today I added a 2nd PCI card (Radeon 9260) over VGA. For the life of me I
can't seem to configure my xorg.conf to work with the 2nd card and 3rd
monitor. I have attached a tarball with my working xorg.conf, and my
attempts at configuring the 2nd card (xorg.conf.broken).

Any and all help is appreciated. If you need more information, please feel
free to ask and I'll provide it. Thank you.

Hello,

Here is the revelant parts of the configuration I was using with a PCI-E
Nvidia card for two monitors (DVI+VGA) and a PCI ATI card for the third
monitor:

I'm not sure, but you could probably do something like this with your two ATI cards.

HTH,
Baptiste
