take a look at the new radeon man page. You might try adding the option "MonitorLayout"
from the man page: Option "MonitorLayout" "string" This option is used to overwrite the detected monitor types. This is only required when driver makes a false detection. The possible monitor types are: NONE -- Not connected CRT -- Analog CRT monitor TMDS -- Desktop flat panel LVDS -- Lapto flat panel This option can be used in following format: Option "MonitorLayout" "[type on primary], [type on secondary]" For example, Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT, TMDS" Primary/Secondary head for dual-head cards: (when only one port is used, it will be treated as the primary regardless) Primary head: DVI port on DVI+VGA cards LCD output on laptops Internal TMDS prot on DVI+DVI cards Secondary head: VGA port on DVI+VGA cards VGA port on laptops External TMDS port on DVI+DVI cards The default value is undefined. ------------------ I have a system running XFree86 4.3 and a Radeon 7500 VE dual head card. I'm running \ the heads using Xinerama. I can't get to that box right now, so I can't include the \ config files. For some reason, this box randomly locks up or reboots. I think it's \ probably the video card/drivers, but I don't know since I can't make it happen \ consistently. I'm pretty familiar with Linux, but I don't know much about X. Are there any known issues with the Radeon drivers locking up in 4.3? I can't find \ anything that matches this problem in Bugzilla. I tried to update to the CVS drivers built by Alan Hourihane. When I replace the \ XFree86 and radeon_drv.o files and try to start X, all I get are blank monitors. I \ can back out of X with ctrl+alt+backspace, but the screens stay off. I usually have \ to shutdown blindly at this point and switch the file back to get things working \ again. Can anyone give me an idea of what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
