Created attachment 17670 [details] First start after reboot. I recently installed a second video card (RV280 PCI) to get tvout working on that card, and realized I can only start X once, after that it'll say "No devices detected.". I'm attaching two files, the first file is starting X after a reboot, the second one is after shutting down that X, and then trying to start it again. This is on current git xorg and ati drivers.
Created attachment 17671 [details] Second X start
Created attachment 17672 [details] my normal xorg.conf
Created attachment 17673 [details] xorg.conf for dualhead It's worth mentioning that I can't get X started dualhead either, this could be a configurational error on my side (I didn't try much when I realized I needed a reboot between each test). Attaching the xorg.conf I tried for dualhead. I also tried starting X with my normal xorg.conf and checking xrandr, xrandr then only shows my main device, and not the R200 device.
Realized something else, normally I boot without a framebuffer device, if I boot without one, and try to load uvesafb AFTER I've started and stopped X, it'll fail with this error: uvesafb: no monitor limits have been set, default refresh rate will be used uvesafb: scrolling: redraw uvesafb: cannot reserve video memory at 0xd0000000 uvesafb: probe of uvesafb.0 failed with error -5 Loading uvesafb after a clean boot, then loading X works fine.
Must have been a motherboard issue, same hardware works on another motherboard.
