Hi! I patched an xfree86 server, to no switch VTs nor touch the keyboard.
Then I started it on a secondary PCI VGA card. The primary card was working in text mode. I noticed, that after the start of the X server, the primary display did not update any more ( I started "watch date" there ). The old content (text) remained there. I also noticed, that certain characters output by "watch date" appeared in the Video-BIOS POST screen on the secondary monitor. Also I can type on blind on the primary screen and execute commands, switch VTs, only nothing is displayed. Again certain effects are noticable on the secondary display. Is this a fundamental PC architecture problem, that two VGAs can run at the same ? Or is this just the result of assumptions in xfree code, that only one display exists ? Thanks for any reply, David Balazic _______________________________________________ XFree86 mailing list [email protected] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
