Talk to the XFree86 4.0 guys; they're tackling the problem right now because they want to handle multi-headed machines, and (except for certain double headed products from people like Matrox) only one card can occupy the legacy ISA address area so extra cards never have their VGA BIOS' run at all.
Thanks, that is a *great* idea.
The thing is, the chip on the L440GX is a cirrus, and cirrus has always been pretty good about open specs on their chips. If it were one of the other companies I would think about giving up :-) I think we can get this. We'll be talking to the xfree guys.
Also, in a pinch I can survive in the cluster with serial console until we get this.
