Default multiple frambuffer help


Hello.

How to force my kernel (2.6-test4) to setup all
my graphic boards ?


I have two grapic boards, both nvidia, one AGP, one PCI,
both have a screen attached to it.

I got them to work with XFree but I would like to use
them in text mode too.
I know we can add a kernel paramerter video=map:01 to put
the vt on different framebuffers but the thing is :
my kernel does not initialize the second framebuffer.

my second graphic board shows up in lspci but the kernel
seems to just ignore it.


thank for your help.

Phil.
