Setting up dual head anddetermining video card bus id

I am going to try and set up dual head displays with one nvidia card. How do I determine the BusID of the agp videocard??
I am running Fedora core 4 with the latest kernel and a Nvidia Gforce 6200 oc card and have installed the latest driver for it.
could anyone post their xorg.conf and any advice would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks in advance!!! Terry

run scanpci and look for your secondary video card. you'll want to put the answers in the form of PCI:QQ:RR:TT where QQ = bus id, RR = cardnum, and TT = function number.
