Bug#420419: WIth two video cards
Hi,
I'm basically having the same problem (same segfault), but I can't find the correct way to configure my X server with the new intel driver.
In fact I'm using two very different video cards for my xinerama setup: one i845G (driver intel) and one old Matrox Mystique (driver mga). I couldn't find any information about the new configuration with this type of setup, so I would appreciate a lot to get some help for this issue.
Here is an excerpt of my new xorg.conf (I removed the sections about the keyboard and DRI) :
Section "Device"
Identifier "matrox"
Driver "mga"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Intel"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Virtual 2048 2048
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Virtual 2048 2048
EndSubSection
EndSection
I tried using two Device lines in my Screen section, and got some weird results; I tried with using +xinerama when starting the server, or without.
I must say I could make it work in "two independant screens" mode (only the screen on the matrox card was a bit weird, but I suspect I'll have to try a preferred mode for that).
Here is the relevant part of my old xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"

Section "ServerLayout"

And I used to start X with the +xinerama option.
Thanks for having read until this ;)
