BobGuy© Posted February 9, 2003 Report Share Posted February 9, 2003 Will Mandrake V9 recognise and properly configure 2 video cards and monitors during the install process? I'm thinking of trying it and was wondering if any Linux distro could do this without having to edit by hand the config file after the install. Or is it necessary to install the distro then add in the second video card and monitor after the install? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobGuy© Posted February 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 What screen card do you want dual displays on...? The APG card is a matrox G-200 8MB -- The PCI card is a VooDoo3 2000 16MB Both monitors are identical ViewSonic PF790 -- This combination does work well in my Slackware V8 setup. My plan is to just replace the Slackware HDD with a different one thats been wiped clean. If I run into any major problems I'll just wipe the HDD and hook up the Slackware HDD and be back in working shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
