[Linux-fbdev-users] nvidiafb dual cards dual headed : how to ?

[Pierre-Yves P. <py....@wa...>]

 

 

Hi,

 

I'm trying to run dual PCIE cards framebuffered. The aim of is to get 1 VGA
display for console and a 2nd one for the VGA/LCD of my HTPC case.

 

/dev/fb0 exists, but what about /dev/fb1 ? I look for docs nearly everywhere
but could no get infos on it.

 

Here what dmesg gives :

 

nvidiafb_probe START

nvidia #1: Test OK

nvidia #2: bus seems to be busy

nvidiafb 0000:03:00.0: Failed to register I2C bus nvidia #2.
