hello,
I seem to be having trouble with doing a multihead....on v 4.1.0
I am using a Dell server that has an onboard ATI ...... Dell BIOS does
not give me the possibility of choosing the boot time graphics adapter
used....... it seems to default on the second installed PCI card (also ATI).
-- if it turns out that this error is a limitation of my Dell machine, I
wonder if I had an other 2 graphics cards, if I could do the multihead
setup with the 2 extra ones (and ignore the onboard one)........ anyone
have any ideas ?
....here is part of the X stdout
