I've already got one of those which is part of the problem, it works
fine in Windows and I can drive all three desktop screens and laptop
screen but the Linux X drivers are a bit flaky and for some reason get
unloaded as soon as the Intel drivers load. It is a known issue so I'm
trying to ditch it and merge all three screens so I can drive them off
the internal card.
