Can you provide the output of kudzu -p -c VIDEO?

Comment 2 james 2006-06-04 23:26:37 UTC
Thanks for looking at this.  A couple more notes: The nvidia card is in the agp
slot, the ati in a pci slot.  The machine boots to the pci slot/ati card.  The
monitors on the agp slot/nvidia card can't run at the bootup refresh rates.

Reassigning to kudzu, although hopefully (fingers crossed), we'll be able to
land some bits within X to do autoconfiguration for FC6 and make this not an
issue anymore
