    Unhappy Nvidia SLI?

    Hi,
    Everything is working perfectly now after some while of installing stuff, BUT Nvidia SLI. I have some good proof for that : If I play some opengl game, and disconnect the SLI Bridge connector, nothing extra happens. The game works as perfectly as before with no effect. So, how to get Nvidia SLI working? I hope this has not been discussed too many times before, i couldn't search for "SLI" in the forum search because the term was too short.
    Thanks
    Rasmus.

    PS. AND! Of course system specifications! GPUs: 2x Nvidia GeForce 6600GT, Motherboard: EPoX 8NPA SLI, Processor: AMD Sempron 3400+, Linux distro: Debian 4.0 sid (Using KDE for the gui). Umm... I think that's all needed for this subject

    While I am not a Linux guru I think it's probally due to SLi is geared towards Gaming and Linux well...isent really. Only thing I could think of is make a custom Driver though I woulent know where to send ya for making a SLi driver. Sorry

    Heh, no. I belive it SHOULD work after doing (as root) nvidia-xconfig --sli=on, and then nvidia-xconfig --multigpu=on and then copying some old stuff from the xserver.conf to the new (for example the keyboard layout). But I am not 100% sure that this will work...
