when the windows driver claims the pci resources, it gives them each a name and they show up in the windows device manager. the second "subfunction" is just there so they can have two video devices show up in the device manager. > Regarding the "No active displays on Pipe B", this probably happens > because, before starting X, I disable the LCD with the keyboard sequence > FN+F5. If I do not do this, the screen becomes unreadble (I guess > because the CRT works in 1024x768 and the LCD do not). that's the problem. the i810 driver relies on the bios to deal with outputs and modes. if tyou use the bios to disable an ouput, the driver probably has problems detecting an attached device. > > Thanks a lot for the explanations, but I would like to return to the > question "why the CRT works under 1024x768 and the LCD not".
