Hi,
I'm trying to get a three monitor setup using two graphic cards working, one is PCI-E and the other just PCI. To make things worse, the first one is ATI and the second one nVidia
I specified the BusID option for both graphic cards in the corresponding Device sections in xorg.conf. However, X complains about not finding a graphic adapter at the BusID of the nvidia card, which I found out using lspci, and which is
01:06.0
so I specified 'BusID "1:6:0"' in the nvidia device section.
This should normally work, right?
I would like to find out if X can actually see the graphic card. There used to be a "Xorg -scanbus" option which would print the bus ids of the devices that X finds. However, it does not seem to be there any longer.
An old manpage of xorg.conf says about the BusID:
This information can usually be found by running the Xorg server with the -scanpci command line option.
Now it says:
This information can usually be found by running the pciaccess tool scanpci.
Ok. But I just can't find this scanpci tool, nor a package named pciaccess. There's a libpciaccess which is already installed, but it doesn't contain such a scanpci tool.
What do they mean? I never heard of such a tool. And I can't find it Help!
