Description Matthias Bläsing 2008-03-07 12:19:06 UTC
Hello,

I had a dual-head setup running, that consisted of my laptop screen (1680x1050) and an external monitor (1400x1050) in a "wide-screen" config (the two screens besides each other).

The problem was always, that the 3D rendering engines waves of after 2560 (yes there is a corresponding bug report open). So I want to switch to a stacked setup (on screen above/below the other). Influence mainly be textured video, that magicly disappears behind the border (not to surprising).

The problem: After I activate the second screen, the lower half is garbled. I can "fix" this by running glxgears and moving it over the area. After that everything is fine - moving another "2D"-Window over the garbled area does not help.

I'll attach the running log, the config and screenshots.

Thanks in advance

Matthias

Ok - I overlooked the AccelDFS Option. I could either force the system to AGP 1x or deactivate AccelDFS both work.

Please excuse the noise.
