The default xorg.conf no longer specifies the driver or busid, so it's
up to the xserver to use the right one. Closing the xorg component as
fixed, but if it doesn't work right, feel free to reopen.

Xorg cofigures wrong video car
So it's a fairly random choice of card? I had imagined there was some
way to decide which card was in use (the console messages always appear
on the right card -- although maybe they appear on both?)
To be honest, it's months ago so I guess the answer is either one of

The script that generates xorg.conf takes the first (or last?) device

Xorg cofigures wrong vi

Let me know if this seems reasonable for you.
Cheers,

You seem to be correct in this.
It's not easy for me to get access to the machines during summer
holidays but a speculative wakeonlan attempt seems to have worked.
lspci -vv attached shows both video cards. I guess I should have
disabled the onboard card in the BIOS (I guess it'll allow that?).
Hey, Gavin.
I wonder if this isn't a case of the onboard ATI card not really being
disabled, and Xorg still
"thinking" it's the primary card.
Does the ATI still show up in lspci?
