Ok, weird might have been the wrong word ;-). But allow me to call your installation "not the normal, average desktop scenario". I've been in this strage IT business for over 20 years now and to be honest: your the first one I've heard of who actually did that - on purpose. Great! Am Montag, den 1

We're waiting for ATI drivers that fully support Xorg 6.8 which is the latest stable Xorg release. And you normally can't have two graphic cards in one box. There might be some weird way though to have both an AGP card and a PCI one installed but I wouldn't bet on that. Am Montag, den 17.01.2005,
