(It would be nice, so I can have multiple monitors, since I already have
the card. But then again new low end nvidia cards are not very expensive.)
What are you trying to do? Run two cards in one machine using two
different versions of the driver? That won't work.
Yes, exactly. It won't work because it can't, or because it's not written
to handle this (but could be)?
So without a real use case I don't see a need for allowing multiple
nvidia-glx variants to coexist.
The use case is I had an old card. I bought a new one, and now I want to
use both so I can have 3 monitors.
Obviously the kernel module has to support two versions at once first, so
I'm not asking for multiple nvidia-glx variants if the kernel part is not
possible.
I actually wasn't asking for anything, I was just wondering if a: it was
possible, and b: if anyone who understood the driver even had it on some
future wishlist, or if it's not something that was even considered.
