I haven't tried using separate display adapters, but I'm currently
running F15 on triple head using an ATi Radeon HD 5770 card (I'll
confirm this model once I get back from work). This card, if I recall
correctly, offers (2) DVI ports and (1) DisplayPort port (I had to
purchase a separate DisplayPort->DVI adapter), which fired up my
desktop on all three screens w/ minimal fiddling (on both Gnome 3 and
KDE 4).
