Description Harald Rudell 2012-01-19 08:06:49 UTC 
The nVidia Quadro NVS 450 has two GPUs on it, type G98
The card has four ports allowing for four displays

nouveau appears to:
a. Not support the G98 chip
b. Not support multiple GPUs
c. Not support more than two displays

Making this card work could be a good idea!

NV98 is definitely supported now, as are multi-GPU setups. Take a look at http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MultiMonitorDesktop/ for how to get that going. Make sure you're running the latest nouveau software, as there have been some fixes specifically related to the NVS 450.
