Hi,
I am trying to get multi-screen capability working with an nvidia/matrox
combination. I need 2 separate X screens ( :0.0 & :0.1 ), not xinerama or
twinview or anything like that.
Config:
Intel XEON 2.4 GHz
RH 7.3 (2.4.18-13 kernel, XFree86 4.2.0)
NV Quadro4 900 XGL (AGP)
Matrox G450 (PCI)
Screen 0 (Nvidia) works fine, but I can't get anything out of the Matrox
card no matter how I configure XF86. I'm getting no signal at all. I've
tested the Matrox by itself using Win2000, so I know that card is fine.
Below is a sample config file I have tried. Would I be better off using an
nvidia PCI card instead of trying to mix matrox/nvidia?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
