[Newbie]ATI Radeon VE Dual-Head?

Tue, 02 Apr 2002 10:35:37 -0800

After hours of net searching, I've been unable to find any information about
whether or not the Radeon driver supports the dual-head cards.  X runs just
fine, but I'm unable to set up multiple displays-- I'm stuck with one
display mirrored on two monitors.  While stereo-scopic vision is nifty and
all, I'd prefer something a little more useful... Has anyone gotten
dual-head working?  If so, how? Any help would be appreciated, considering I
bought this card simply because it was dual-head. I'm running 4.20, and here
are the relevant sections of my XF86Config file:
