I am having major problems setting up triple monitors for my debian desktop. I have been able to successfully set it up under windows xp.
Code:
lspci : 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G400 AGP (rev 04)
0000:02:01.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage I/II 215GT [Mach64 GT] (rev 48)
The ATI card is in a pci slot and boots up first (BIOS, etc).
The Matrox card is dual head and in the AGP card slot.
I would like to set these up with my 3 Gateway EV700 CRT monitors to create a triple monitor setup.
If someone wouldn't mind looking over my XF86Config-4 that would be awesome. I can't figure out where I'm going wrong and could use some guidance.
XF86Config-4 (Not currently working, set up for triple monitors)
Code:
# XF86Config-4 (XFree86 X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the XF86Config-4 manual page.
# (Type "man XF86Config-4" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xfree86 package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xfree86
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following commands as root:
#
# cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.custom
# md5sum /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 >/var/lib/xfree86/XF86Config-4.md5sum
# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
