In fact, I've yet to see any G80 at all that powers up in dual-link mode. Even my FX4600, which you'd think has enough other power domains that dual link would be the least of its worries. AFAICT, the SOR setup path doesn't actually change output timings, just a scaler in front of the output itself. Which would mean you never actually transition between single-link and dual-link. So it would be pleasant if we could just check whether the output backend is already in dual-link mode, rather than have to play with magic config options. Of course my understanding of the SOR path could be completely wrong. - ajax _______________________________________________ xorg-announce mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-announce
