I've successfully built the driver and tried it. xrandr recognises it,
and it detects correctly my output monitor, I can switch it on/off with
xrandr --auto, and it works as "cloned". I don't seem to be able to move
it to right (or left) using --right-of:
corsac@hidalgo: xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1024x768 --right-of LVDS
xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 1280x1280 (desired size 2304x854)
Any advice?
