Hi
I just recently acquired a GeForce 4 MX440 card made by Asus. Its a
dual head card with 2 DVI ports and a third connector for video capture.
I would like to use the nv driver developed by the XFree86 project.
The nv driver appears to be more stable than the NVidia driver, and from
what I can tell moves faster as well.
The problem I'm having is using the nv driver with Xinerama. I had
dual heads running ok with my old Radeon VE, and I just used that config
file to set up the new cards. I have everything working well with the
nvidia driver now, but if I change over to the nv driver X won't start.
I can start with a single head if I comment out the line:
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
In the second device section, but of course this only loads one head.
I can only guess the problem is with the nv driver not correctly seeing
the card as a dual head card, but I don't know how to fix it.
This is the output in the XFree log:
(II) NV: driver for NVIDIA chipsets: RIVA 128, RIVA TNT, RIVA TNT2
