Description Dave Jones 2005-11-19 10:43:35 UTC
I think what's happening here is that for some reason, the frequency ranges for
the 2nd head in the config file are being ignored, and it fails to read ddc info
from the monitor (I dont think that ever worked). As a result, it falls back to
a "safe" mode.

(Xinerama is also busted, but I'm more concerned about the 1995's-esque display
right now).

I'll attach the conf/log later.

and you claim that worked before?  i was under the impression that the radeon
driver would refuse to claim the X:Y.1 device since it's a pseudo.  can you
attach an X log where that config worked in the monolith?

i think what you really want is:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Videocard0"
    Driver      "radeon"
    VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
    BoardName   "ATI Technologies Inc RV370 [Radeon X300SE]"
    BusID       "PCI:5:0:0"
    Option      "MonitorLayout" "TMDS,CRT"
    Option      "CRT2Hsync" "30-98"
    Option      "CRT2VRefresh" "50-160"
EndSection

that did the trick.

(For the benefit of others who may read this, my dual-head display also came
back with the addition of

Option "CRT2Position" "RightOf"
