Description Andrew Lunn 2007-04-26 14:55:09 UTC

I just rebooted my system which resulted in new ATI drivers being used. The new driver, debian package 6.6.3-2 has problems with MergedFB on my Radeon Card.

Since MergedFB is disabled it mirrors the two displays which is not what i want. The older driver would corrected determine it should used 1280x1024 on the second head and setup MergedFB.

This is either a regression, or a change to the configuration which causes my ol d configuration to not work. Any idea which?

You are using xserver 1.3 which plays havoc with the metamodes as defined by the radeon driver.  Try rolling back to xserver 1.2 (as shipped with xorg 7.2).

Comment 4 Andrew Lunn 2007-04-28 04:03:00 UTC

Hi Alex

I now have a working system again. I first tried the ATI driver from Debian experimental, which says it is  6.6.191. That alone did not fix the problem. There was then an xserver -core and -dev package update in debain unstable. Installing these two fixed my system. I don't know which part is critical, the -dev, -core or the driver, but for the moment i'm happy.
