Just loaded Core 3 and all seems fairly smooth except for setting up dual monitors. I have an PCI and a AGP card installed, but it looks very much like the AGP card is not being detected.

Tried booting a live CD and it found both cards, but system-config-display sees only one card. Tried manually setting up xorg.conf using the bus ID detected using the live CD, but of course this is ignored because the card doesn't exist as far as the current system is concerned.

Is there a utility I can use to scan the bus and attempt to force recognition of the second card? Any suggestions welcome.

TIA

The Applications --> System Settings --> Display will launch a "Display Settings" applet that has a "Dual Head" tab that will let you set up a second video card. I've never done this myself in Linux. I use 2 monitors at my office under Windows XP, it greatly improves my productivity.
