It appears that you have to use either the onboard graphics or the add-on video card. Simultaneous use doesn't appear to be an option. Is there a work around for this. I'm on a 6 monitor set up.

PC Doesnt seem to ever fully turn off when I do "turn it off"
Im running a Linux PC (not sure if that matters too much for this) and when I go to power down it doesn't actually turn off.
