Gee I sure got my hopes up. But unfortunately no go. Even when I use the correct syntax just for the first disaply, X wont start unless I comment it out. I am still thinking it might have something to with with setting this to some correct setting. Anyone know how to find out the correct PCI bus settings for such an embedded controller?
