From: Mark Knecht To: Gentoo User Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 X-Archives-Salt: X-Archives-Hash: 6ae1a1a2c9cbe96e6fda5c3c6b295c79 Hi, BACKGROUND ONLY: I've got a futures trading partner who is attempting to give up Windows if he can. I've helped him install Gentoo on his new machine. The box is up and running and so far very productive for him. We're struggling a bit with getting his three monitor setup working like it did in Windows on his old machine. He has an EVGA NVidia-based GeForce 8400GS along with the onboard Intel Graphics stuff. Our goal is to drive 2 monitors with the NVidia card and 1 with the Intel VGA. My question is about running nvidia-settings. I'm finding that if I shell into his machine using ssh -X -Y -C IP-address and run nvidia-settings I get it displayed here, as it should be. The problem is it is seeing my GTX 465 and not his 8400GS. Anyone know how can I get nvidia-settings to look at his hardware and do nothing but paint the GUI here at my end? Thanks, Mark
