I have the same issue with a G550 card in dual head mode and managed to change the code to get it all working with some nasty hacks. It looks like it was broken when they changed the driver to use libpciaccess to map memory regions instead of using the old xf86MapPciMem calls. There are two problems:
-> It tries to map the card's IO and iload regions twice, once for each head. libpciaccess doesn't like having two mappings for the same PCI region in the same device so it gives back EINVAL and this causes the breakage. I took out the check in pci_device_map_range in libpciaccess and this worked OK. -> The new code maps the whole framebuffer into both heads because it uses region->base_addr and region->size instead of pMga->FBAddress and pMga->FbMapSize. This makes both displays draw onto a single monitor and it all looks very silly. I changed that in the mga driver and it works fine now. I can attach patches if anyone likes but they're a bit hacky and the first change in particular is probably not the right way to fix the problem. -- Xinerama broken in intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
