Hope someone can help. I am not a genius at PC's so the answer might be obvious. I purchased an NVIDIA GeF2 MX400 graphics board and have tried to install it, but am having trouble. I have looked through the various websites, but can't find anything that addresses my problem. My PC has a Matrox G400 board in the AGP slot and the MX400 is in the first PCI slot. The Matrox board only has a single connection. I seem to remember on some PC's there were two. Do I need a graphics board in the AGP slot that takes the input from the MX400 board and furnishes the output to the screen? If so, what is it called? There is one output from the MX400 board. When I boot the machine I get the initial OS selection screen, but when it tries to boot to linux I get a black screen and nothing else from the MX400 board. The Matrox graphics board continues to work just fine. I am unable to do any diagnostics when the Matrox board is removed because I lose all output just after the initial screen. I have also tried running from the SuSe install disk, but same thing happens. I have installed all the drivers on the windows OS and everything works fine, so the board seems to be in good shape. Below is my XFree86 log file from when I try to configure from the console. I'd appreciate all help you can provide.
