Yo! I have to chime in with some others: the new RandR 1.2-enabled mga xserver is a piece of shit from my perspective. The past behaviour (2nd head only initialized after 1st switch back to textmode, and DDC information switched between the two outputs of the G550) at least allowed me to work, even if I had to use a very low frequency on the better display. The new xserver doesn't even allow me to work: the 2nd head is not initialized at all, and switch back to text mode doesn't work at all. I first thought the computer has crashed, but then I noticed that basically, I'm in the text console underneath, just the video mode is not reset so I have to type blindly. I can even start X again and it will properly init the monitor I've had before. :-( I just hope this gets fixed, else I'd have a unusable G550 here (well, unusable in Linux. I guess Windows will have drivers available, haven't tried so far. ;-) btw, this is a G550 with one analog and one DVI output, with two analog monitors on it. pci id: 102b:2527 I can try *some* stuff, but with very long round trip as we're moving so computer time at home is scarce. cheers -- vbi -- Whenever people agree with me, I always think I must be wrong. -- Oscar Wilde
