Triple screens configuration


Hi

Has anybody in managed to get three screens working. If so could they attach their XF86config file.

I have been ttrying for like 4 hours with little success to get an AGP Dual and a PCI card all Nvidia to display for me.

This the error i get.

(WW) NV: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:3:10:0) found

Fatal server error:
Requested Entity already in use!


Any Help would be greatly appreciated as I havent got very far from just googling.

Thankyou

Aaron
