Hi,
I just set up mandrake 9.0 with xfree 4.2.1 and tried to have dual head
working on my radeon 7000... the relevant XF86Config entries I believe
are correct (see bottom, am omitting irrelevant stuff).
I tried already:
- reinstalling XFree from the official xfree86 distribution (suggested in
this same discussion list)
- disabling one at a time and all of the "Module" entries
- taking out the "DRI" section
- If you wonder about dri, that gets disabled anyway because of
issues with xinerama/multihead
The error I get is the same already mentioned by someone else:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[.... ---> nothing special before, no errors or complaints about
unresolved symbols <--- ...]
