Hi,
I’m attempting to setup two (eventually four) monitors across two GTX-650-Ti Boost cards.
My computer is currently running Archlinux, and it has been driving the two existing screens with one of the 650s for months, so I’m sure the displays and one of the cards works. The other cards will run the displays, but I haven’t used it as extensively.
As the topic mentions, I’ve tried getting both BaseMosaic and SLI to work, and am greeted with a blank screen and system freeze on X startup. I’m more concerned with Mosaic, as this is the feature which ostensibly will allow me to run four monitors in a desired configuration.
I’m going to walk back through the steps for BaseMosaic one more time and upload the .conf and .log as I go.
Archlinux:

I have tried this with 319.76 and 331.20, right now my system has 331.20 installed (I believe this time it is from the nvidia download site’s .run file, not from Arch’s packager)
$ sudo nvidia-settings -v

Edit 12-11-2013
Ok, after a reboot, I’m back :)
I have lxdm.service disabled, so the computer boots up to a console.
With the SLI cable not installed:
I start lxdm, the screen flickers, and my login prompt appears on the primary monitor. Second monitor is still in standby. Mouse cannot move off screen in any direction.

Ok, to me it looks like BaseMosaic requires SLI, so I’m going to shutdown, install the SLI cable, and power back up.
===============================================================
Edit 12-11-2013
Ok, back up again.
With sli cable in place:
Computer boots up to terminal login.
I log in, and start lxdm.service.
Screen flicks to black and the entire system freezes. No keyboard or mouse, no SSH, nothing.
Primary monitor stays turned on, but blank. Secondary monitor remains in standby.

Another nvidia-bug-report file, generated with the sli cable in place, but without any xorg.conf file, so that the system would actually start the X session:
nvidia-bug-report-sli-no-xorg
I’ll hang on to this system for a while, if anyone has suggestions or needs me to gather more information, please let me know.
Thanks,
