I have an SL6 system which uses the epel nvidia kmod modules.  Just
recently X began crashing whenever a flash or other video is played. I
presume this is related to the most recent kernel update. The system was
a bit unusual in that it had two video cards and four monitors.  Is this
unique to my setup or have others observed this?

As a follow up I converted to the nouveau driver which doesn't have this
problem but I have yet to get the system to drive more than two monitors
off one card.  Anyone know of a good resource for multicard/monitor
nouveau setup/troubleshooting?

Cheers,
Bob Blair
