Say bye bye to DRI/GLX if you decide to go multi-head. It wont work, thats the downside I suppose, otherwise its great.What makes a dual headed card? My system invoice described the video card as follows:
128MB DDR GeForce FX 5200 Graphics Card with TV-Out and DVI 128FX52
So, I have a TV-Out *and* DVI port on this card. I take it this isn't the same, and I won't get the expected results by plugging the new monitor into this port?
It just occurred to me that I do have onboard video, and that it should be decent at least. According to some of the reading I've already done, the different video cards won't be a problem.
And, worst come to worst, I should be able "trade" (sshh! - she won't miss it anyway!) the audio upgrade that wouldn't work in FreeBSD with my wife's video upgrade (my audio upgrade was a modified SB Live card, and she also has onboard video). Her upgrade is the same card as mine - different part number, but I suspect that simply reflects a lot number.
Cool.
But I do have to get a second card - the multiple outputs in this card won't fit the bill, will it?

And yes, i had mine setup with a AGP card and the other was onboard, It worked like a charm. Hope this helps.
