Public bug reported:

On an old P3 Dell machine being used as a thin client, there is an on-
board ATI video card not working properly (I'll report that separately).

To solve this I added an S3 Virge PCI card.  Although the full boot up
messages are displayed over the S3 video card, the xorg.conf generated
is for the ATI card, with the PCI BUS IDs and the display driver
specific to that card.

The only way to get this working, that I can figure out is to place a
custom LTSP with the correct driver and pci bus id.  As I'm away from
the machine just now I can't get the pci ids (though the ati card is the
numerically smaller ID).

For now all I can attach is the correct xorg.conf.  I guess this may not
be enough, but hopefully it'll get this off the ground and you can tell
me in advance what you need.  I guess you may want the xorg.conf and
logfile for both correct and incorrect configs, as well as lspci -vv?
Let me know if anything else is needed.
