RE: PCI-E and Onboard Multi Monitor?
I've got a similar setup, and it works fine. You will need to have both the card and the on-board chip installed properly [drivers and stuff] and it should be fairly easy to make your desktop cover more than one monitor. If you're using X, there was a thread a few weeks back on setting up X to use more than one monitor.

Edit: If the card and the on-board chip have different addresses on the bus, they are different devices and you should be able to treat them as such, unless there's something really odd I'm missing.

was put impeccably into words at DebianDay for me last Saturday, by Knut Yrvin of Trolltech - adults try something once, fail, and then are like "ffs this doesn't work". Children try, fail, and then try again, and succeed - maybe on the second, or even fifth retry. But the thing is that they keep at it and overcome the problems in the end.
