Hi all,
As I was setting up xinerama with the devices listed in the subject, I found
out that if I set the ATI as the primary controller, when the X server tries
to initialize the i810 the machine will hang and not even remote access will
be possible.
As I said, I found that out when trying to setup xinerama. Since I didnt
know if it was the ATI or the i810 or both the ones to blame, I created
several layout configurations [1] and tried them out first by keeping the
i810 as the primary adapter, and second: keeping the ATI as the primary.
This are the results:
simple1 (ati) simple2 (i810) multihead1
multihead2
i810-primary success success success [*]
success[*]
ATI primary success crash crash
crash
[*] this is a pseudo-success,.... since the ATI now and then leaves "marks"
(horizontal, vertical, blurry sections, diagonal) all over the screen....
when resizing, moving windows.... even sometimes when moving windows in the
*other* monitor.
well, I am clueless on where to go from here. My loaded modules are in [2].
I wish I could give you logs of the failed runs, but those files get
corrupted in every crash.
Someone had any success setting up dual monitors with a i810 as the
secondary adaptor?
thanks all,
Arturo.
