Thanks very much, with gdm the starting/stoping of both XServers work
perfectly (with i386 architecture and MGA primary, NVidia secondary).

I only wonder why I need hackvideo although I use the prefbusid-patch.
Without hackvideo the mouse and keyboard on the first XServer freezes
as soon as the second XServer is started. Also the first XServer
uses 99% CPU. And without the prefbusid-patch it does not work at all
(black screen).

I want to thank all of you who have made it possible to use
one linux box with multiple monitors/keyboards/mice !
I hope that this feature will find its way into the standard
linux kernel and the standard XServer.
