Distro is RH8

I've got 2 video cards - Voodoo3 (AGP) and a S3-Virge (PCI)

The V3 is working fine. I cannot get the S3 to work together with the V3. I'n not trying to span the desktop across both monitors just have 2 different desktops (1 on each monitor).

Currently the S3 is sending a signla but all I get is a flashing _ , system worked correctly under WinME.

I would like the V3 to display @ 1024x768 and the S3 to display @ 800x600

i found that on linux my dual head would only work by adding the agp card to the pci one and not the other way round like you have. i.e. Screen1 leftof screen0 instead of screen0 rightof screen1 or whatever.

looking at mine might help:

http://thirtythreeandathird.net/dualhead

didn't work but got some error messages.

Screen1 does not exit.

and

TDFX(0): [dri] tdfx DRI not supported in 8bpp mode, disabling DRI

More to work on.

If the pci card needs to be "seen" first, maybe you should make the pci card, card0, and the agp, card1...

For the more obvious,
in each Section "Monitor" you need values for hsync and refresh, as per your monitor specs,
in Section "Screen" you need "modes" for each depth and a "DefaultColorDepth" for any "screen" with more then 1 depth listed.

Refer to acid_kewpie's file, you got it all in there.
