    Thanks for the response. I know how to get it to work if I could use the "nvidia" instead of the "nv". However the 64-bit "nvidia" driver apparently does not work on all harware yet and specifically has a hard time with mine. I have tried to load the "nvidia" drivers dozens of times with as many different errors. So unfortunately until they release a better 64-bit driver I am stuck with the generic ones (and therefore unable to use twinview).

    OK,

     

    I have an HPxw6200 workstation with an nvidia 280nvs PCI-E video card w/ 2vga ports. I have been trying for days to get the dual monitors to work under suse 9.3 64-bit OS. I have come to the conclusion that the nvidia drivers just don't work yet (I get nothing but black screens when I tried to load them) so the twinview options are not available. I am using the generic "nv" driver for my card. So I am trying to use Zinerama to get my dual monitors to work. According to everything I have read, I need to create two device to represent each vga port as such:

     

    Section "Device"

    BoardName "Quadro NVS 280 PCI-E/Quadro FX 330"

    BusID "PCI:64:0:0"

    Driver "nv"

    Screen 0

    Identifier "card_0"

    VendorName "NVidia"

    EndSection

     

    Section "Device"

    BoardName "Quadro NVS 280 PCI-E/Quadro FX 330"

    BusID "PCI:64:0:0"

    Driver "nv"

    Screen 1

    Identifier "card_1"

    VendorName "NVidia"

    EndSection

     

     

    However, when I do this I get the following error:

    II) Primary Device is: PCI 40:00:0

    Fatal server error:

    I know that xorg "nv" dirver is recognizing the two vga ports and the monitors. I just can't get access to them:
