I have an older motherboard/processor (Intel DG965RY with a Pentium D) the system has an integrated video adapter (82G965) and I'd like to add a second video Card (PCI card ATI RAGE IIC) I'm not looking for fast video but would like to use 2 monitors.

I put the ATI card in the machine and an lshw shows the card:

       -display UNCLAIMED
                        description: VGA compatible controller
                        product: 3D Rage IIC 215IIC [Mach64 GT IIC]
                        vendor: ATI Technologies Inc


When I first booted the system with the card, the BIOS made the ATI card the primary and once X started the system went blank, changed the bios to force the integrated card to be primary and everything works as before, however I don't know how to tell X that there is a second video card and to start using it.

What's the magic command that I'm unable to find? From the GUI I've checked displays under system settings but I only see my integrated video interface, and "detect displays" produces nothing but the existing display.

Thanks,

Jeff
