Both cards are already inserted into the box and seem to be recognized since lspci reports: 02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GF108 [GeForce GT 430] (rev a1) 09:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GF110 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti] (rev a1) Nvidia-setting also reports both cards the 560 Ti one is recognized as GPU0 the other one as GPU1. Currently X11 uses the GTX560Ti and the GT430 is "idle" (has neither a "display-" nor "rendering-job"). How can I move the "display-job" to the GT430 ? How can I urge X11 to exclusively use the GT430 for its purposes? Thank you very much in advance for any help! Best regards, mcc
