Do not have 3 screens available but I have the component cable
connected to TV as well as VGA.<br>
The nVidia X server settings config utility (xorg.conf file masher)
shows 3 screens: DVI DFP, VGA CRT & TVout (component).<br>
My xorg.conf file does not enable X session for TVout screen.<br>
<br>
My VGA CRT screen does not support EDID.<br>
The component cable connection does not either.<br>
I believe the nVidia driver can determine the 75ohm termination on the
component connection therefore presence of screen.<br>
The old AGP nVidia mx440 card did this for sure..<br>
<br>
I'll try to enable the 3rd screen & see that all 3 are
independent...might take me some time tho..<br>

Concurrently?
My reading of the NVIDIA driver readme suggests vdpau cards (on their own) will only drive two concurrently.
Have you done that? With one card? I'd love to hear about that.
btw DVI to component adapters can be bought cheaply on trademe.
