3.4.2Matching X Server Primary Screen with VGA Console

PCI slots are not always probed by the system in the order of their slot numbers. Because of this, the order of X server screens will not necessarily correspond to the order of the slots in which the 3Dlabs OXYGEN VX1 PCI graphics controllers reside. The X server command line option -screenOrdermay be used to alter the mapping of physical screens to logical screens. In particular, this can be useful if you desire the X server’s primary screen to coincide with the VGA console.
