I recently got a new-to-me video card:
00:1f.3 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 100 Series/C230
Series Chipset Family HD Audio Controller (rev 31)
There is also the onboard hardware:
00:02.0 Display controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 530 (rev 06)
It is currently connected to one monitor, but that'll change after this
is fixed. One change at a time.
The computer boots fine. The POST and bootloader show on both
card-connected monitors and the boot sequence shows on the onboard one.
but I can live with that for now.
I formerly had an Nvidia GX750, and something still thinks I have it.
startx runs but exits with error. Any idea where that's coming from?
I've done some investigation, but obviously not of the right things.
Thanks.
