I have a problem when using dual headed mode. I have a i815 motherboard
an a S3-Virge PCI card. Both alone work faultless.
When I start the PCI card first I have a "V_BIOS not found" message and
nothing works. Therefore I start the AGP (on board chip)
first and get two grey X-windows, but sending a x command to the i815
card ends in a restart of the X-server and nothing is displayed.
The PCI card works ok.
I have a 2.4.20 kernel with agpgart enabled, the /dev/agpgart device is
there (if the PCI card is not in the system the i815 is working ok
without the "xf86AllocateGARTMemory: allocation of 1024 pages failed"
warning. I think this warning is critical and is actually an error.
Why did the allocation of the GART memory only fail if an additional PCI
card is put in the motherboard?
What can I do to debug this failure?
I use a recent version of XFree86, but it didn't work on older versions
either.
