Dual monitor possible?

[Ashley Benton]

I didn't touch anything except the new card when I put it in. It didn't need
to be plug to any wire so I just inserted it and closed everything. I just
plugged my screen and electricity.
Now, I just turn off the computer and back on after having unplug it for a
few minutes (it apparently didn't feel like coming back on), then I wrote
lspci in my terminal. These are the results.(What does mean the first line?
00:00.0 (different version?)) I still don't see the old card but I'm not an
expert at reading and understand only part of it.
