Description A X 2008-07-28 22:48:22 UTC
running sax2 at terminal prompt dies at line 653 of /usr/share/sax/init.pl

machine contains 1 matrox G200 dual head video card and intel onboard video (single head).  I was able to manually configure the Matrox card with three monitors using the Option MGASDRAM in the xorg.conf.

I forgot to add that Yast > Hardware Graphic Card and Monitor does not work either even though I have set up the monitors and graphics card to work properly

Known issue. Either 'sax2 -r -c 0' or 'sax2 -r -c 1' should work for you. Depends on which one is your primary card.

Wow! You have 4 MGA G200 cards - or 2 cards with 2 MGA G200 GPUs - or 1 card with 4 MGA G200 GPUs - in your machine. So workaround could even be one of these:

sax2 -r -c 2
sax2 -r -c 3
sax2 -r -c 4
