If you are using the BARCOMED PCIe display controller, you will need to
decide if you are going to use its on-board VGA capabilities. If you are,
check the setting of the Jumper at J-1 on the display controller (see
figure 4). By default, VGA should be enabled, on the top two pins. To
disable the on-board VGA capabilities of you B
