I am am trying to setup dual monitors with 1 monitors running off each Nvidia GeForce 8800 Ultra i have. If i run it all off one card it will work fine but i would like both cards to be in action. I just can't get Suse to pick up the other card and yes i have installed the driver. Any ideas?

I'm going to assume your using SLI. AFAIK sli does not support multiple monitors, so that would be the reason.

Edit:

When in multi-GPU mode, SLI currently supports one monitor. When in single-GPU mode, users have the ability to use all of the connectors on their GPUs to connect to monitors using NVIDIA® nView® multi-display technology and Windows built-in multiple display support.
