Summary: Inconsistency in randr 1.2 behaviour between intel and
radeon driver
Product: xorg
Version: git
Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: Linux (All)
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Driver/Radeon

There is a inconsistency in behaviour betwenn the intel randr 1.2 driver and
the radeon randr 1.2 driver when two displays (i.e. a Notebook panel and an
external Display) are connected.
The intel-driver selects for both displays the common resolution with the
highest resolution (i.e. 1280x1024 for a panel wirh 1400x1050 and a display
with 1600x1200 where both accept the 1280x1024).
The radeon driver selects for each display its "natural" (highest)
resolution so that the two displays may come up with different resolutions.
IMHO it would be good if both of these important randr 1.2 drivers show
the same behaviour. Which one is the better - i dont know, but I feel
that the intel behaviour is better with respect to the expectations of
"old" (pre-randr-1.2-capable) window managers because these are a little
bit confused with the different resolutions (at least kwin/kicker).
Thanks for the really great work on randr 1.2 - we use it no yet regulary
but it works really good!!
