Monitor hooked up to the second video card is not recognized

I have three monitors. Two are hooked up to an ATI card and the third to an nVidia 6800 card.

This third monitor is not being recognized. I tried installing nVidia's official Linux drivers but received an error that no compatible device is present.

Going into System > Preferences > Display shows only my first two monitors.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 x64.

It appears that the nvidia card is not recognized. I have no idea whether this is a supported configuration, e.g. whether it is possible to have both ati and nvidia binary driver at the same time.

Please, post in the correct forum - this is obviously a Linux Hardware issue, not Linux Software issue.
