Thanks. I looked at the link and it is very vague, It doesn't seem to be about the problem I face. My problem is hard for me to explain but I'll try to, and if after hearing my explanation you still think that it belongs there I will write them. (I don't have a mailing list account, I'm not real sure how to do that).
Say for example I have an onboard video card and an AGP card I bought from the store. Say also for example I configured the bios to use the AGP card by default. What will happen is that Ubuntu will try to use the onboard video card even though in the BIOS I told the BIOS to use the AGP card. This will either cause it to crash (if the onboard video is disabled in the BIOS) or make X display on the wrong monitor (If it's not disabled in the BIOS). If I remove the "PCI 0:0" line (Its something like that) X will automatically configure my X server for the video card I have enabled in my BIOS. Without the "PCI" line, X ALWAYS works. (For me). I think for that reason the "PCI" line is unneeded and is even a problem more than any solution. On Tuesday January 16 2007 12:39 am, Rouben wrote: > Thanks for reporting this issue.
