Matrox chips only have one overlay and it is limited to the first head
as I recall.  This is a hardware limitation.  You might be able to get
it working with two matrox cards since each one would have an overlay
to work with, but I've never tried it.

Hi, all.  When I try to fire up both Xinerama and Overlay on my G450 32
MB, it dies with "Incompatible screens.  Root window depths differ"
[I'll
post the whole log below.]  I can get either Xinerama -or- Overlay to
work
just fine.  Lastly, according to this link:
http://calmarc3.cchem.berkeley.edu/archives/bum/02/archive/0058.html
they do appear to be mutually exclusive.  Is this true?  Might it be
fixed
in 4.3?  Would it work if I used two different G400's, instead of just
one
G450?

Thanks,
