Note: Any number of video displays from 1 to 6 are supported. However, note
that when the OS boots (for example, Red Hat Linux 5.2), the logical number for
each display will depend on how many displays are attached and which video
ports are used. The physical video port and the logical number assigned to it are
not a fixed relationship. Instead, this is controlled by the sequence of device dis-
covery and enumeration during system boot.
