Currently not possible with nouveau. This is partially a limitation of the X server, not just nouveau. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

If the card can actually drive 3 monitors at once with the nvidia driver then it should work in nouveau now or can be implemented with some reversing. Maybe someone who knows more about mode setting can give you a definitive answer. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

There are boards which can drive 4 displays, but they're actually dual-GPU boards.
