Hello trisquel community!

I'm eager to give trisquel a try however I'm wondering how well the current version will handle 2 video cards that power 3 monitors (no sli). I remember having difficulty getting the ubuntu unity desktop to work correctly with multiple monitors and additionally I don't see the point of using trisquel if I cannot use the nouveau drivers to support my hardware requirements.

Can anyone give me some feedback about their experience getting multiple video cards/monitors to play nice with trisquel?

Thanks in advance!
