This is a new Intel-based system, correct?
It is my understand that framebuffer stuff isn't well supported (if at
all) on this architecture and that we shouldn't be using it at this
time. Also, you want to be using the i915 driver but (I think) you are
not using an xorg.conf file and the version of xorg-server/drivers you
(and I) are using doesn't support this hardware through hald
automatically finding it so it tries to go with the i810 which is
wrong. (Or was in my case)
I had all these problems when I brought my new machine up a month ago.
I had sent you my .config file earlier off list. I'm attaching my
xorg.conf file which does dual head. Modify as you see fit.
Cheers,
Mark
