Graphic card pairs/triples that work, but with some glitches

A.2. Graphic card pairs/triples that work, but with some glitches

  • Generally the X server driving the AGP card has to be started first.

    This can be acomplished by manually starting X or using gdm as desktop manager. You'll have to abstain from using xdm or kdm, as they start the X servers at the same time.

  • AGP sever restart leads to system crashes. In gdm.conf, set AlwaysRestartServer=false.

  • The XFree-4.3-prefbusid patch/binary fixes most of the problems. In case the X servers are started in the right order there are no lock ups.
