| Hi all: I have a PC (Asus A7V-266E) with two Matrox G200 cards, one AGP and one PCI in it. My two monitors are an LG 995E on the AGP and a Samsung 900p. The setup works fine in XP. In Slack 9.0 I have a problem. If I set the bios to initialize the AGP card first, then the PCI/Samsung display is blank. The display is there since I can see it in the KDE desktop pager. If set the bios to initialize the PCI card, then all works fine. Any ideas, Nuz |

Let the BIOS initilize the PCI card, then everything will be fine. -- Thomas O. This area is designed to become quite warm during normal operation. |

PITA I know, and a half decent dual head AGP card comes in at 100 quid round here too Blumf -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/V71sMid3IcxolsoRAgrDAJ4q+LP20/HMANYn88UdnouYp+u+LACdEfTF pneIJG9yskAtJpX3QHY6Oos= =qvdH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |
