Problem with Nvidia quadro NVS 450 and Linux Enterprise

Only 3 out of 4 screens recognized when using Nvidia quadro NVS 450 card with Linux Enterprise 4.6. Output on port 1,2 and 4?

I use latest Nvidia device driver.

I have tested 2 different cards, with same result.

It recognize 2 screens on PCI:4:0:0 but only 1 screen on PCI:3:0:0

Any suggestions?

Trond

Well, I won't say that I'm an expert with xorg.conf setups, but I have some experience. To my eye, and at first glance, yours looks ok to me. However, in the videocard sections there appear to be some anomolies in definition.
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Quadro NVS 450"
BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard1"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "Nvidia Corporation"
BoardName "Quadro NVS 450"
BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
Screen 1
EndSection

Section "Device"

# Screen 0
Identifier "Videocard2"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "nvidia"
BoardName "Quadro NVS 450"
BusID "PCI:3:0:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard3"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "nvidia"
BoardName "Quadro NVS 450"
BusID "PCI:3:0:0"
Screen 1
EndSection
I don't know if these are the cause of your problems or not. It's the only thing I noticed, however.
