Radeon 7000 and xrandr
Hi guys,
The issues with my move to 64bit just doesn't stop. Well, this is the
last serious one.
I have a Radeon 7000 (R100) which uses the radeon_drv.o driver (not
fglrx). I have two identical LCD panels hooked up to it, on connected to
the VGA port on the left, one connected to DVI on the right. Before I
used MergedFB to get one big desktop that's hardware accelerated (2D and
3D). This worked great.
Now MergedFB has been removed from X, so I have to use xrandr. Problem
is, xrandr just doesn't recognise that there is something connected to
the DVI port:
# xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1200
VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
0mm x 0mm
1280x1024 59.9*+
1280x800 60.0
1280x768 60.0
1024x768 60.0
800x600 60.3
640x480 59.9
DVI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
I have tried every command I could find to tell it to activate it - no
joy. I tried the gui tools (grandr and arandr) too - they also don't
acknowledge the presence of a second screen.
Does anyone have this combination running succesfully? Is there
something special I have to do to make it work?
thanks
