    2 out of 3 monitors working

    I just built a machine last night and am trying to get my 3 monitor working. I have been able to get 2 of them working.
    I have 2 PNY GeForce GTX 750 Video Cards installed and have been primarily using the nvidia-settings to configure them.
    All 3 show up in nvidia-settings and show correctly on the layout. They are 3 in a horizontal arrangement and the one that won't turn on is the one in the middle. When I drag a window from left to right it is obvious that it is acting like the monitor is there, but it is not displaying anything. The monitor is working, I have swapped them and it works on other ports. The one that is not displaying is the second port on the video card. I switched it to the other video card (also secondary port) to no avail.

    • Kubuntu 14.10
    • KDE 4.14.1
    • GRUB Version 0.97-26ubuntu66
