I have tried installing the proprietary drivers from the nvidia website but they make it more complicated than it needs to be compared to ATI. I am running out of ideas and I want to know if there is a way to make my video card output three displays. I was also wondering if Xorg's Nouveau driver could do it but I highly doubt it, what can I do to get this triple monitor thing working.

Last time I checked the proprietary driver for Linux supported only two displays.

I already figured, the only way the proprietary drivers work with three monitors is when it starts another instance of X11 to display on the third monitor. So I went back to X.org's open source driver and it worked!! But there are some downsides to it, firstly, the mouse cursor flickers once in a while, the screen used as the primary desktop is the one on the right side instead of the middle one. I moved the panel to the middle screen but it won't let me use the screen as a desktop, just simply a screen, how do I change that.

For the googlers out there this is how I did it.

In typical Ubuntu variants you would go to display settings, the card should have your monitor on the list paled out, select it and check off the check box that says "use this display". You might need to tinker around with it to get the sequences just right, I don't like having to physically move them around, it's more troublesome than using the software method.

xrandr is the tool to manage your displays, just figure out the correct configuration and add the command to your X startup script. Open-source driver may work better when firmware is loaded.

I have also facing the same problem.......

Your distribution says Squeeze, but in case this is old and you have Jessie now, install Nvidia's drivers with this:

If you have the gpu linked below. It states that the card supports 4 displays.
