i855 problem - was Re: [XFree86] Configuring 4-heads with Radeon RV2P
I think this is a know problem with the i8xx driver. I'm not sure what the work around is, if there is one. Alex Hi Jason: Ive read your post, and maybe you can help me whith something similar: I have a laptop which has a screen plug (db15). If i turn on the laptop, the screen that works is its lcd pannel. If i turn it on whith an external screen pluged into the db15, that screen works, but not the lcd. Also, if im using the lcd, i cannot plug an external screen to the db15 whithout rebooting. When i run X, in the /var/log/XFree86.0.log file appears: ... Display plane A is disabled Display plane B is enabled ... I think this is something related to that. Do you know how can i switch from an external screen to the lcd, and vice versa (whithout rebooting :D) Also do you know if it is possible to use both at the same time? It would be great for presentations, where the projector is plugged, but you need to look the screen at the same time. If you know any document where i can find some information, i would appreciate it. Thank you. Fernando Alvarez-Uria Madrid, Spain p.s.

Re: [XFree86] Configuring 4-heads with Radeon RV2P
I never configured X with laptop. sorry... I guess it is possible to use lcd and external screen at the same time using the clone mode though. You also need to check the man page for your graphic card. good luck Jason On Mon, 2003-10-06 at 17:54, Fernando Álvarez-Uría wrote: > Hi Jason: > > Ive read your post, and maybe you can help me whith something similar: > > I have a laptop which has a screen plug (db15).

[XFree86] Configuring 4-heads with Radeon RV2P
Hi there.. I'm currently trying to configure four screens with Radeon RV2P which has 2 heads. (using kernel 2.4.20-20, X 4.3.0-33) When I configure two heads (using only one card), it is working well. But, when I configure 4 heads (using two cards), X just crashed with following warning in log file: (WW) RADEON(3): Only one monitor detected, Second screen will NOT be created I'm using the same monitors.
