** Description changed:

  Ubuntu simply cannot handle 3 graphics cards at once (at least mine).  I
  know this is not my issue because Mandriva Linux easily detects and sets
  these up, with no hassle whatsoever.  Ubuntu likes having 2, any 2 of
  these cards, in any combination, 2 graphics cards work fine.  So they
  all work individually or in a pair.
  
  Its when I enable a third graphics card, that Ubuntu will NOT start up.
  It will hang in the middle of placing menus and toolbars on the desktop!

+ VI.5. Multi-board support broken
+ 
+ RandR 1.2 does not support multiple boards yet (it's planned for RandR
+ 1.3). It means that any RandR 1.2 aware driver will crash the server if
+ you have 2 boards. Even one board with a RandR 1.2 driver and another
+ board with a classic driver does not work. It just crashes the X server.
