I'm using xf86-video-intel -> 2.9.1 ; xorg-server -> 1.6.5 and xorg-drivers
-> 1.6
My hardware :
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated
Graphics Controller (rev 0c)
I using 2.6.31-gentoo-r2 with KMS and Idon't have a xorg.conf file.
I set my two monitors using xrandr :
xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800
xrandr --output VGA1 --mode 1280x1024 --above LVDS1
X works fine, but XFCE display setting don't, waiting for a fix already in
the XFCE roadmap.
