Won't fix. Support for mga_hal will be removed in future releases anyway. Does that mean that the open-source driver will no longer support G450 dual-head display? As I understand it, mga_hal_drv.so is required to run MergedFB or Xinerama on both heads. Nope, as the man page implicitly states, G450 dual head works without mga_hal. mga_hal is only required to drive DVI output or mergedfb. I will implement DVI support in the driver soonish. mergedfb support will likely follow. Thanks for the explanation. I have to use MergedFB mode at present to get any kind of acceptable performance on the dual-heads, although none of the drivers I've tried so far are close to the performance in Windows 2003/XP, which is a shame. |
