I'd be very interested in seeing your code, hacky or not. We were actually just discussing this on this list and on the devel list at xfree86.org. David Dawes said he has some preliminary work for setting up multiple viewports into a single framebuffer. Sven Luther and myself, among others, would be interested in developing and extending this support.
Alex -------------------------------- I am pleased to report that thanks to the guidance Jens Owens gave in a previous message, I have made 3D work on two heads simultaneously (IIRC, the ATI Windows XP drivers didn't do this). I have not provided a diff because it is quite a hack and very system specific, at the moment. Effectively, I forced the virtual size to be 2048x768, hacked the RADEONDoAdjustFrame() function to fix views as I wanted them, used the default cloning stuff to setup the second monitor, and removed all the conditionals that were preventing dual-head+DRI from working. I had to enable Xinerama (even though I have only one screen in the server setup) in the config file; otherwise, the desktop would end at 1024 instead of 2048. The problem I mentioned in a previous post -- not enough memory for direct rendering w/ two screens -- was solved when I set it to 16 bpp. Does anyone have any ideas for a more elegant implementation of this functionality, especially where the config file is concerned? This is the first real code I have done in the Xserver and any input would be appreciated. --Jonathan Thambidurai __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
