Re: [XFree86] ATI Radeon IGP320M (U1) Dual Head
IANAXE, but I've never seen a laptop that would dual-head with it's external port. You typically get one, or the other. Cheers, -- jra This one does dual-head, I had it going with WinXP the day I bought it. But I cannot have Windows XP, I need to run GNU/Linux. There are quite a few newer laptops that do dual-head. Right now I know that the hardware supports dual-head, and the software supports dual-head. But I cannot find why my config isn't working.

The biggest difference between your XF86Config and mine is that you are using the ati driver. I'd like to know what version of X are your running. The Clone options I am using because, according to the man page for the radeon driver, if I do not specify what modes, hsync, and vrefresh for the secondary display in the Clone options, the modes from the primary display will be used. And without them I checked the log file and it did report that the modes from the primary were being used for the secondary. Anyway, I am still completely clueless as to why it is not working. Either hp has done something funky to the card, the radeon driver is funky, or I am funky. I just wish I knew what.

[XFree86] ATI Radeon IGP320M (U1) Dual Head
Hello all. I am currently working on getting a dual head setup to work with an ATI Radeon IGP320M (U1) graphics card in a notebook computer. I have approached the list with this topic once before, but I am still need help. The notebook is an hp pavilion ze4430us model. It features a 15 TFT display. I also have a connected CRT made by Samtron; model 77V. I have attempted to setup X to display one screen on each of the displays. When I was working this issue before I was using an unknown monitor as the secondary display. I could not find any information about it as far as the HSync and VRefresh goes, and it was a general concensus that I did not have the values set correctly. Now I have the Samtron, and I know the recommened HSync and VRefresh rates. However, the connected monitor does not display an image. My current XF86Config file: http://www.brandonlewis.net/documents/ati/XF86Config The corresponding XFree86.0.log file: http://www.brandonlewis.net/documents/ati/XFree86.0.log Information regarding the connected Samtron 77V monitor: http://www.samtron.com/product/77v_spec.html With the above configuration, I can only view the screen that is associated with the Primary (TFT) display. The screen associated with the external monitor is not being displayed. The external monitor's status light is just blinking. The xinerama extension _is_ working. Any help is appreciated very much.
