Does anyone have a summary on which combinations of display adapters
can coexist in a PC?  In particular, I would like 2 VGA cards
displaying different screens, eventually one will be upgraded to a
TIGA board.  Simultaneous display would be great, but I can live with
a soft-switch to toggle between displays.  Suggestions of other
combinations (eg CGA-VGA, Mono-VGA, Herc-EGA, etc) are also welcome.

Thanks in advance for any info.
