Hi,
I have two Nvida graphics procs with two monitors
GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 onboard (PCI:0:13:0) NEC monitor
GeForce 8400 GS in a PCI slot (PCI:0:13:0) Samsung Monitor
on a 64 PC running Suse 11.2 and KDE.
I installed the nvidia driver with Yast from download.nvidia.com as per instructions on that site.
When I booted only the Samsung displayed. The NEC was blank
I ran nvidia-settings which could see both video cards. The 6150/NEC was disabled. I enabled it, saved the configuration and rebooted.
Now I see the 8400/Samsung working fine, but the 6150/NEC is black, but the led is green showing it is getting a signal. The mouse is displayed on the Samsung as an arrow, when I move it across to the NEC it turn into an X.
I assume that this means the Xserver is working but for some reason the display is not initialised. As far as I can tell only one xserver is running.
I have tried to enable Xinerama but then both screens go blank when the Xserver starts.
Also Sax2 can only see the 8400 video card.
Any help welcome.
Thank you
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
