I recently acquired a second graphics card, and have XFree86 4.0.1 running quite nicely on two physical screens. However, when I'm not running X, the secondary card and monitor just say "ATI RAGE SDRAM BIOS P/N 113-72301-100" and display a blinking cursor. This seems like a horrible waste of screen resources. Is there a way to expand the FreeBSD console to two screens, maybe attaching a second terminal to the second screen? Thanks. -- Andrew Hesford - ajh3@chmod.ath.cx "355/113 -- Not the famous irrational number PI, but an incredible simulation!"
