I too enable twin or dualview BSD with GeForce 8600 GTS dualview preferrably
liveboot no harddrive. dfly seems to really need harddrive while Linux easy
is diskless. This liveboot gets twingraphics via dvi (very glossy compiz
fusion):

Hi Simon,
Ive installed the nvidia driver on this box, following the instructions in
the README. But when running startx I get
NVIDIA: failed to set MTRR, at 0xd00 256MB (WC)
Is this a problem? X seems to start normally. But no nvidia logo appears.
Thanks,
Petr

with dual DVIs and 2x 21.5 inch HD displays :)
