Hi Tet,

Sorry, I was a little vague there!! I was looking for confirmation really,
 that it works well and is worth spending time getting working.

Google returned a mix bag, although the more negative answers were a lot
older, and there is no HOW-TO at tldp.org.

Anyway, I gather the first step is to do a lspci -v and get the specs of
the cards. I'm not in front of the machine at the moment, but the output
only lists a single card. I assume this is going to be a problem.

How is your /etc/X11/XF86Config reading with multiple monitors?

Thanks

Simon
