Hi,
my current system is: Mandriva 2006, Xorg 6.9.0 and integrated graphic card
Intel i810. And it works perfect.
I'm planning to use dual monitors with a sencond graphic cards, which is a
very old PCI card S3 Trio64. It works on Widnows 98, so there's no problem
with the card itself. I did exactly following the instructions of xinerama.
But i failed to get Trio64 to work. Here are the informations.
When I ran "X -configure", i got the this. However, I don't miss the file
apm_drv.so.
failed load /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/apm_drv.so
failed to load modules "apm" (loader failed, 7)
When I ran "X -config /root/xorg.conf.new" anyway, such errors could be
found in "/var/log/X11.0.log" file.
(EE) Cannot shmat() high memory
(EE) shmget error: Invalid argument
I have heard that Xorg 6.7 supports Trio64, but Xorg 6.9 not any more. Is
that true? Does 7.0 support it? Is there any way to make Trio64 work
without downgrading Xorg to 6.7?
Any Ideas would be appreciated.

Here is the created xorg.conf.new from X -configure.
