Description Tong Li 2007-03-27 13:43:43 UTC 
I installed xf86-video-ati-6.6.191, but wasn't able to get dual-head to         work (the second monitor doesn't turn on). My configuration: ATI X800XT,         Fedora core 6, kernel 2.6.20-1.2933.fc6, Xorg 7.1.1. I can attach the Xorg log if you want.

Thanks!

Dual DVI is not supported if the bios does not initialize the external TMDS chip.  There is currently no working code to initialize those chips.  Most r3xx and r4xx dual DVI boards fall into this category.

Please do, but please really attach it instead of pasting it.
