--- Comment #31 from DEMAINE Benoit-Pierre <[email protected]> 2010-06-07 16:38:52 PDT --- (In reply to comment #25) > If you notice, the integrated chip does does not show up in your original > lspci. Because my BIOS settings were different. For the original report, I did, to the letter, what an ATI dev/maintainer told me to do, to the letter. And he asked me to disable the integrated chipset for my initial report. > You need to enable surround view in order to use the integrated card. Wrong. Windows can use integrated card with *AND/OR* without SurroundView. I spend 2h especially for this test, removing all y disks, and installing Windows on the mail system (instead of HVM), just to make this test. In less than 2h, I could install Windows, get 6 monitors work, and check that they work with AND without SourroundView. I think that ATM it is disabled, because, from memory, it's easier to get X work without SRV for me; i ll check on next reboot. > I would suggest trying a newer kernel without external xen patches. That > should help narrow down the problem. It would work. I don't know how, but stable Debian without Xen support at all could let X use at least two cards. It's not possible to do this test anymore, because I have not been able to make it work a second time (debian stable is available with too many tastes and different kernels, I could not find agaun the working combination), and because many other factors impact. I can not spend hours testing an exponential number of combinations of factors. Over 40h just on X since january is already very much. Plus 3 tonight. Plus 2 for Windows (to check that the problem was NOT hardware). Without XEN, it can work with three cards. With XEN, it can work with one card. *** Things have been recompiled as said. ucode is now installed.
