I accidentally in your base

Since installing Ubuntu 9.04 I've been unable to get my three-screen set-up working again.

I can get it to run either the two screens from the PCIe card, or the single screen on the PCI card, but not all three screens at once.


Here is the xorg.conf for all three screens, and the diffs to get the two/one screen set-ups (I just remove the unwanted screens from the server layout section - everything else stays the same):

Here is the Xorg.0.log for each of the set-ups:

http://pastebin.com/m177b81ab (1 screen, PCI card, works)
http://pastebin.com/m721a574c (3 screens, both cards - broken)


If anybody has any great ideas on how to fix it, I'd love to hear them.

If for some reason you have to use Fedora Core instead of a less braindead distribution (i.e. anything, as far as I can make out), particularly as a desktop, then you will undoubtedly find the following link extremely frustration-relieving:

Edit: go on then, while I've broached the subject here in my ventings, let's hear your recommendations for Linux distros (preferably with a why, but blind zealotry is also welcome) :) I've been a Debian fan for several years now, but I'm currently contemplating an exploratory mission into Gentoo territory.

The reason I'm using Fedora is that our work servers are Centos (I always wondered who used that, now I know), so we run Fedora on our desktops to give us something vaguely resembling a similar environment.
