Default linux with 3 nvidia pci-e cards


"dup" wrote in message
...
I have a asus p5n32-e sli mb with 3 pci-e slots.
When I put 3 nvidia(7600) dual heads in it,nvidia-settings only
detects two
gpu's.In the log I get an error that gpu 2 (got gpu 0 and gpu 1) could
not
be initialized.
Tried different linux distro's,different bios settings but no go.
Lspci gives me the 3 video cards(on 1.0.0 and 5.0.0 and 1.0.0(also as
0a.0.0).
Tried the latest nvidia driver and ubuntu drivers.No go.

thanks


2 of those slots are PCIe X16 (most all video cards) and the other is
probably an X8 PCIe slot for PCIe sound cards and other peripherals.
