Does Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" make a difference for this? Yes, using an AccelMethod of EXA does seem to fix the problem. Updated configuration file and log to be attached.

Closing as EXA seems to fix it. |

Created attachment 17154 [details] xorg.conf from one-Screen configuration (corruption) I have two R370 cards, each with two 1280x1024 monitors on them. I am attempting to set up a quad-head configuration with the version of the driver at git commit b416e97a1f16ef700ba1aaca317dee82b7a3cf64 . I have successfully tested a dual-head configuration and a quad-head configuration with two separate "Screen" sections. However, this does not integrate well with my window manager (KDE) and I have been trying to get all the monitors as viewports on a single "Screen" section. When I change the Virtual size from 2560x1024 to 5120x1024, the output on the screen becomes massively corrupted. I also cannot move the cursor onto the third or fourth monitor (those on the second device), although the modes are initialised; I suspect this is because I either haven't understood the configuration file properly or because I'm trying to do something that can't be done. However, the corruption is the bug that I'm reporting. xorg.conf and associated log in one-Screen and two-Screen configurations to be attached.
