I've got two monitors attached to my desktop PC's GPU (a GeForce 560Ti) that work fine for X.When I switch to the console TTY, however, both monitors show nothing. The console TTY is being displayed, but Linux is using the integrated HD3000 GPU to do it - as I discovered when I attached a monitor to the appropriate port.Can I make the console TTY appear via the NVidia GPU instead? I'm not bothered about which of its monitors it appears on - I'd just like the output to go via the right GPU!System is: Linux tlinux 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.63-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux. The NVidia driver is the proprietary 319.82 - it's the one you install from the default Debian package manager.

This turns out to be related to a BIOS setting. I don't know if this setting has the same name in every BIOS, but in mine (AMIBIOS) it's called iGPU Multi-monitor. (It can be found in the Advanced > System Agent Configuration > Graphics section.) Set it to [Disabled], and the TTYs will appear on the PCI-E GPU's monitor.
