The pre-release drivers fixed my dependency problems, but I can't get
multi-head to work with them. I'm using a single card to drive 2
monitors, and as long as I have a "Screen 0" or "Screen 1" in either
device section, xorg bombs out saying "screen 0 deleted because a
matching config section couldn't be found."
I've verified my settings, and that's the only thing that makes a
difference. If I remove the Screen options, I can only bring up a
single monitor.
Does it work if you add two Screen sections? My current configuration in
a similar sort of setup is:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName "nForce 760i SLI"
BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
Screen 0
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device1"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName "nForce 760i SLI"
BusID "PCI:4:0:0"
Screen 1
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen1"
Device "Device1"
Monitor "Monitor1"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
which has a lot more settings than are actually necessary, but may give
you an idea of what could work.
That's pretty much what mine looks like, except that I'm in a disjoint
setup. No xinerama/dualview. It was working under xorg 1.7 btw,
although it somehow magically got removed, but that's outside of this
scope. I can post my config, but I think I might try adding the
pre-release as a mirror and pull in all the suggests and recommends. I
just pulled down the packages I needed to cover dependencies and
installed them manually.
