Fwd: Problem with intel 945G in "twin" mode

[Tiago Vignatti]

It isn't a known bug?
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2597
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6751

I have the same problem here when I try to initialize more than 2 cards, 
but it really depends what are the kernel+Xorg version that you are 
using. My workaround for this is to use a kernel < 2.6.13.

regards
