Hi, I am successfully running a leap 42.1 system with a dual head nvidia graphics card.

I am wanting to add a second dual head nvidia graphics card to my system. I had quick play and 'nvidia-settings' would not 'see' the second card.

Before I trial things further are there any recent 'how to's on setting up dual cards with leap? The only 'how to's I can find are general linux from several years ago...

(I am wanting to install leap 42.2, but decided I would get dual cards running first, so a common solution would be appreciated)

With thanks, H

Are you familiar with the Linux forum at nVidia?

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/board/98/linux/

I was unaware of this forum. Googling 'nvidia / linux' combos had not introduced me to it. I am in the wrong timezone to read this thoroughly (will do it later today).

My only reservation about the post is the word 'multiseat'. I am after a single seat solution (ie 1 big xscreen)

Thankyou. H

I quickly found a post there that discusses Multiseat Ubuntu, not openSUSE, but it's fairly recent:

<https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/936873/linux/-howto-multiseat-wi th-ubuntu-16-04-systemd-gdm-proprietary-drivers/>

Just out of curiosity, what's your use case and which cards are you working with?

I am a 'home user' who does all the home type stuff (web. email, TV..). I also spend time in qgis / postgis / apache. I would like all the displays to be on the same xscreen.

The cards, like on the devtalk.nvidia post, are GTX 750 Ti.

AFAIK 'multiseat' is referring to multilple video cards, not multi-monitor. -- Gertjan Lettink, a.k.a. Knurpht openSUSE Board Member openSUSE Forums Team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
