Michel, Thanks for your suggestions, and sorry for the delayed reply. I've tried these now, and still no luck getting multiple Radeon 9000 cards to work. I also tried doing another fresh build from CVS as of yesterday. I still get the same errors as before, irrespecitve of glx or radeon/ati driver choice.
I guess what I'll do for the time being is use an analog VGA card for the third head, and try again with the dual radeons later. I would just get a different card, but these were the only ones I could find that were PCI with a DVI connector. Can anyone recommend a better setup than the dual PCI radeons + one AGP Nvidia? I just need three outputs @ 1600x1200 DVI. I've still got a couple weeks to return these cards if they're not going to work multi-head.

Sounds like multi card Xinerama is broken in the radeon driver to me, but: does not loading the glx module make a difference? What about specifying "radeon" for driver instead of "ati"? Not that I expect these to make a difference... > Now there's one other thing I should mention, but it's probably a red > herring: before upgrading to the current CVS source, I was using V4.2.0. > After upgrading, the new version was not able to find its libraries until > I exported LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/X11R6/lib".

No. Do you have /usr/X11R6/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig since installing from CVS? -- Earthling Michel Dnzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
