    Hello,
    I have a machine with NVIDIA GE Force FX 5500 on AGP slot that works just
    fine. I have a PCI Matrox Millenium II card lying around, and so I tried to
    put it in so that I can have a dual-head display. After I put in the Matrox
    card to the available PCI slot, when booting I got the message:

    "PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 1 of device ... "

    When I try to startx, the machine would hang and won't even respond to
    CTRL-ALT-DEL to reboot. system-config-display won't work either. I believe
    this is because of the PCI message above.

    Any suggestion as to what cause this, and how to fix it ? Is it possible to
    have a dual-head display with AGP Nvidia card and PCI Matrox card ? I've done
    something similar with an onboard trident card, and a matrox PCI card before
    and it works just fine.

    Any help is appreaciated. Thank you

    Reuben D. Budiardja
