Subject: fb and multiple adapters
Date: Fri, 27 Dec 2002 16:39:19 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021228003919.27894.qmail@web14910.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

I'm looking into running framebuffers on multiple
video adapters. My current setup has an ATI AGP Radeon
9000 as the primary adapter and a ATI PCI Rage128 as
the secondary. 

The Rage128 driver won't load in this config. So the
first thing I did was to add my board's id to it, PD.
Now I'm at the point where the expansion ROM isn't
enabled and the adapter isn't initialized.

Should I add code to aty128fb to enable the ROM and
execute the initialization code (like X does)? What
the overall policy towards framebuffers initializing
secondary adapters?
