Hello,
Has anyone been able to configure the 4-head supported, dual FireMV
2400 chip video card. It is my understanding there is a bridge on the
card between two 2400 chips. I am able to get only the first pair of
monitors working, whenever I try to get just the second pair of
monitors working, the system freezes, and the Xorg.0.log gets binary
data written to it and is not useful. The xorg.conf file below is a
failing case, needless to say it seems, all four monitors will not
work either.
Thank you,
Donald

The card shows up on the bus from lspci as follows:
