I have a similar problem when using a PCI Rage128 with any AGP card. When booting the system BIOS executes the primary video card's BIOS initialization entry point. AGP cards seem to work without running the initial video BIOS but PCI ones don't. When I use windows it doesn't matter which card is set to primary. So the vendor supplied drivers probably know how to initialize a secondary PCI card after the OS is booted or Windows is initializing them by being a PnP OS. Would PCI cards work right as secondary displays if the init code in the video BIOS was executed by X when the driver gets initialized? Or is this a more complicated problem having to do with plug and play OSs and resource allocation? ===== Jon Smirl [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
