Unable to enable third screen on 8800GT with SuSe
Hi,
A few days ago Windows disabled a diagnostic service. And because of that, “There was no network available”. Enabling it wasn't possible, because of admin rights (Wich I had, but services.mmc probably didn't noticed, LOL)
So, I decided to install openSuSe. After successfully installing the Nvidia drivers, I got stuck by enabling the third monitor.
My setup:
Core i7 860
8GB Ram
Nvidia GTX295
Nvidia 8800GT
2x Samsung Syncmaster @ 1920x1080 → Left and right.
1x Zalman Trimon @ 1680x1050 → Center screen
The left and center screens are connected to the GTX295, the right screen is connected to the 8800GT.
Xorg.conf:
# nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig

The left and center screens are working atm, when editing xorg.conf, xserver won't start after reboot, so I need te rebuild xorg.conf.
Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
