Hello all,
From FC1 to F8 inclusive, I have used the same hardware to have a
fully-spanned desktop using three cards across four monitors. Rather
than being too ambitious at the moment, I am merely trying to get
three separate non-cloned desktops across three different cards. Here
is lspci output:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17GL [Quadro
NVS] (rev a3)
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2
MX/MX 400] (rev b2)
05:01.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2
MX/MX 400] (rev b2)
We see that a lot here. What is happening is that no single driver will
handle both of those cards. Your choices are:
1. (recommended) dump the $20.00 MX 400 for something made this century. :)
2. run both the legacy and the new nvidia drivers. This is a REAL PITA
and takes a level of expertise nearing black magic to make work. If you
are not a wizard class admin, don't attempt it. :)
When my users bring be machines with mismatched junk video cards to
install, I tell them strait up that for the time it would take to make
it work, I could make enough money to buy a new top of the line Nvidia
or ATI card.
Think about it.
Good Luck!
