Possibly the logic in ogl-select and in the Xorg module selection can be improved. Pointers: 1) Try to figure out which card is selected by ogl-select as the main card: look if libGL.so.1 points to mesa or nvidia https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/blob/oi/hipster/components/x11/ogl-select/files/ogl-select 2) Review the logic in hw/xfree86/common/xf86Config.c Don't you get any output at all in /var/log/Xorg.0.log ? In any case, I do have updated Xorg drivers for ATI in the xorg-testing repository: http://pkg.openindiana.org/xorg-testing/ and even more recent in my local repo... If you have time you could try to create a new BE and update to Xorg 1.18.4 in this repo. I may be able to reproduce similar setup by adding an ATI in my workstation but I may take some time.
