I used a Nvidia GeForce MX 400 dualhead and it worked like a charm. I took out the SiS and the ATI card. I will try this weekend
to get the Nvidia with the SiS to work (since the SiS is PCI and the Nvidia is AGP).

I installed XGL and got it running with KDE,but it only works if I run one monitor, XGL doesn't work with TwinView enabled. Anyone
else see this?
