There are some known problems like this one, I think it is being worked on upstream. > - I couldn't get a virtual desktop of 3080x1050 with a modeline of > 1400x1050 for the CRT, X11 always created a 3360x1050 virtual desktop, > i.e. double the size of the lvds Not sure about this, maybe the ATI driver insists on using such a size. If the latest upstream git of the driver does this, it might be worth sending the corresponding config and log on bugzilla.freedesktop.org. > - most importantly: I can't start either XFC4 or KDE3 session from that > xterm or from kdm.

If starting with KDE/XFC works fine on both heads, I would guess that KDE/XFC does some incorrect RandR 1.2 calls at startup. It is hard to be sure. Did you check in the corresponding KDE/XFC configuration utilities? Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
