It's one video card - the smolt profile lists it as:
nVidia Corporation NV44 [Quadro NVS 285]

I'm not at work anymore, but according to a quick
google search, that card has a DMS-59 connector.
I have an adapter that breaks that out into two VGA
connections and each monitor is connected to one of
the VGAs.  The video driver looks like nouveau from
the Xorg.0.log.

Thanks,
