After I tried to use xorg's radeon driver i was surprised it does not detect my DVI monitor. ATI's proprietary fglrx driver works ok, though. I tried to override the "MonitorLayout", to no avail. xorg.conf: --------- Section "Device" Identifier "radeon9100" Driver "radeon" Option "MonitorLayout" "TMDS, NONE" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "syncmaster970p" Option "DPMS" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Device "radeon9100" Monitor "syncmaster970p" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" EndSubSection EndSection X.org's log: -------------- X Window System Version 6.8.2 (Ubuntu 6.8.2-77 20051010174523 root@vernadsky.buildd) Release Date: 9 February 2005 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.8.2 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.10 i686 [ELF] ---- 8< ---- (II) RADEON(0): Primary: Monitor -- NONE Connector -- VGA DAC Type -- Primary TMDS Type -- NONE DDC Type -- VGA_DDC (II) RADEON(0): Secondary: Monitor -- NONE Connector -- None DAC Type -- Unknown TMDS Type -- NONE DDC Type -- NONE
can you attach your log and config?

can you post a log (from the xorg radeon driver) with: Option "MonitorLayout" "TMDS, NONE" and Option "MonitorLayout" "TMDS, CRT"
Created attachment 4632 [details] Incomplete Xlog of with radeon, TMDS-NONE enabled It seems both the Xorg and kernel crashes when i enable the "MonitorLayout". After some retries this is the part of logfile that survived the crash. I guess it is incomplete, but couldn't get more of it. I think the kernel crashes (or locksup) because Note that it's MonitorLayout option that causes the crash.. works okay without it, and I can use CTRL-ALT-F1 to break to the console from X (and back) when running with radeon driver. The same thing (crash) happens with both Option "MonitorLayout" "TMDS, NONE" and Option "MonitorLayout" "TMDS, CRT"
Do you still get the crashes if you disable the dri? (comment out the Load dri line in your modules section)
(In reply to comment #8) > Do you still get the crashes if you disable the dri? (comment out the Load dri > line in your modules section) Yep, it still crashes with MonitorLayout, if I disable dri. If I comment out both "Load dri" and "Option MonitorLayout", I see no changes to previous behaviour with "Load dri" enabled (no X display, but kernel and console working). I think I forgot to note, that when radeon boots up (without MonitorLayout specified) the display behaves as if it was unplugged (goes to standby mode).
OK, I think I can close this one, as it WORKS with 7.0.0 (after upgrade to Ubuntu Dapper). No MonitorLayout option needs to be specified even. Thanks!
