Fedora Core 3 SLI Question

[nctechno]

Does FC3 support dual graphics card in or out of SLI mode?

Don't know about this one.
Have you tried googling?
I'm sure it does support "dual head" but I don't know with what cards and what "SLI mode" is.

Trojan,
SLI is a method of using 2 graphics coltrollers to render a screen. It's something like SMP but for GPUs. The term was first coined by 3dfx back in 1997 with ther VooDoo2 series cards and stood for Scan Line Interleave where 1 card rendered all the odd lines and the other rendered all the even lines. I'm now waiting to see when they'll use 3dfx's multi GPU technology on a single card.

Hi
I have a dual graphics card which worked fine under FC3 and also under FC4.

If you want to configure the pc to use both then you will need to run system-config-display as root and select the dual head tab from the GUI

Hope this helps.
