1 I have two
2 <http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=550380#>GeForce
3 8800 GTS. Both are picked up by lspci (output listed at the end of the
4 message). When I start X, I get errors saying that it can't initialize
5 the second card so SLi will be disabled. 3D rendering does work however
6 as I am able to run some 3d games and also run Beryl (even though I hate
7 it and went back with fluxbox). I know my mobo is compatible with both
8 the cards because 1) they (the GPUs) both work under WinDoze and 2) I
9 had SLi enabled under Debian before I replaced it with Gentoo. I'm using
10 the exact same proprietary drivers as I was using under Debain, and am
11 using the same kernel config with the help of make oldconfig (I was
12 using a custom compiled kernel under Debian as well). I'm attaching my
13 /etc/X11/xorg.conf, /var/log/messages and /var/log/Xorg.0.log my
14 message. Thank in advance, this is really bugging me and I may just be
15 overlooking something simple.
