Hi

I have a problem with my custom xorg.conf file. I do have the following setup:

- Nvidia GeForce FX5600
- LCD connected to the VGA port
- Beamer connected to S-Video TV-out
- Nvidia binary driver

If I configure X using sax2, I get a setup, where only the top right quarter 
of the image is visible on my LCD. But that quarter is streched across the 
whole screen. TV-out does not work at all.

If I delete the modes section from xorg.conf, the picture gets displayed 
correctly.

Now, I added the following sections in order to have TV-out working:

Section "Monitor"
  HorizSync     20-88
  VertRefresh   20-100
  Identifier    "Monitor[1]"
  Option        "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
  DefaultDepth 24
  SubSection "Display"
        Depth   24
        Modes   "800x600"
  EndSubSection
  Device        "Device[1]"
  Identifier    "Screen[1]"
  Monitor       "Monitor[1]"
EndSection

Section "Device"
  BoardName    "GeForce FX 5600 TV-Out"
  BusID        "PCI:1:0:0"
  Driver       "nvidia"
  Identifier   "Device[1]"
  Option       "RenderAccel" "True"
  Option       "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
  Option       "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"
  Option       "ConnectedMonitor" "Monitor[1]"
  Screen       1
EndSection

And I changed the ServerLayout to look as follows:

Section "ServerLayout"
  Identifier   "Layout[all]"
  InputDevice  "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard"
  InputDevice  "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer"
  Screen        0 "Screen[0]"
  Screen        1 "Screen[1]" RightOf "Screen[0]"
EndSection

To the given device section I added "Screen 0".

Like this, I get screen 0 to my LCD and screen 1 to the TV-out. With the 
mouse, I can move over the right edge of the LCD to get the cursor to the 
Beamer. And using DISPLAY=:0.1, I could send apps to the beamer.

All this worked perfectly, until I did an online update using YOU. I think, 
there was an update for X.org, wasn't it? Now, the X server does not start at 
all, giving the following error in Xorg.0.log: "Error, Entity already in 
use." If I comment out the BusID option in the second device section, the X 
server starts, but shows me only screen 0 to the LCD and a "wrong" image to 
the TV-out, which could be a clone of screen 0 but with completely wrong 
sync/refresh. I can not really see something on the picture, but it changes 
with changes on the LCD.

BTW, the framebuffer shows me automatically a clone on TV-out. It 
automatically chooses 800x600 as resolution during boot and in text mode.

Any ideas?

Thanks for help,
Dani
