Multiple simultaneous FB output.

Hi all!
Is it possible to use multiple graphic cards (i.e. a AGP G200 and a pair of 
PCI Milennium II) and to visualize multiple framebuffers *simultaneously*?

All I want to do is to use a text console or X on the G200 (/dev/fb0) and to 
visualize some application's output on /dev/fb1 and /dev/fb2 without having 
to switch console and, above all, avoiding the system to blank consoles 
without focus (i.e., while in X on /dev/fb0 it would be useful to do something 
like "tail /var/log/messages > /dev/tty12" where tty12 could be bind 
to /dev/fb2).

Thanks.
