Bug#569970: xserver-xorg-video-ati: Does not work with DisplayPort (ATI Radeon HD 3470 [1002:95c0])
Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.12.4-3
Severity: normal
The symptoms are that only one display can be driven at a time. This is fixed
upstream and the fix is in experimental (I'll try to add the fixed in experimental
tag). Refer to the thread "Dual Output on Mobility Radeon HD 3470" from January 2010
on lists.freedesktop.org for more information. I'm putting this here to document it's
fixed in experimental and to save anybody else who stumbles upon this problem some
time troubleshooting (note: need to install from experimental both
xserver-xorg-video-at and xserver-xorg-video-radeon).
