Two video cards: X crashes
 
After a couple of minutes of entering LXDE, the screen freezes up.
For the time being, I'm using only the NVIDIA card, with one monitor.
I'm keeping the ATI card in, since I plan to use it to attach a second monitor later. It would be easy to just take out the second card, but first I want to figure out what is going on with this setting.
I have not created xorg.conf yet, since I have not read enough about how to configure it yet.

to make sure that you have the latest version.

This seems to show how it is happening

Thanks for reading this :)

GT 430 will support 2 monitors.

Make your life easier, ditch the old ATI Rage XL.

Thanks for answering.
However, I took away the old card and it is still freezing.
Here is the last part of Xorg.4.log:

There are some scattered reports out there of nouveau producing this EQ overflow.
I've used nouveau with many other cards and I had never seen it happening.
Maybe it has to do with this particular card I'm using now.
However, this freezing of X was not necessarily assocciated with having two cards, but with this problem between the nouveau driver and my card.
In this case (although I usually prefer not to) I replaced the open source driver with the proprietary Nvidia driver, and I stopped having the problem. All is running smoothly as usual now :)
Thanks a lot for the input on this.
