PanoramiX error: Incompatible screens. No common visuals
 



All your displays need to have compatible settings (such as color depth 
and/or resolution). Say one of your displays can do 1024x768x24colors, 
and another can do 1024x768x16colors but not 24colors, and there are no 
other combinations either that are common between the multiple heads. 
This would cause this problem.

 Kent, these is my output of the xdpyinfo without the xinerama but with the
 same configuration,
 the dimensions and default deph for the two heads are the same.

I Subscribe..
it's the same for me (PGX + Creator FFB2+). Selecting 24 bits of pixel
depth and a 1024x768 resolution on both heads doesn't change the result.

I read about the xinerama, but I am confused
 




screen #0:
 dimensions:1024x768 pixels (347x260 millimeters)
 resolution:75x75 dots per inch
 depths (7):24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32
 root window id:0x47
 depth of root window:24 planes
 number of colormaps:minimum 1, maximum 1
 default colormap:0x20
 default number of colormap cells:256



Screen 0 has 4 visuals: 23, 24, 25, 26 (hex).



screen #1:
 dimensions:1024x768 pixels (347x260 millimeters)
 resolution:75x75 dots per inch
 depths (2):24, 8
 root window id:0x49
 depth of root window:24 planes
 number of colormaps:minimum 1, maximum 1
 default colormap:0x38
 default number of colormap cells:256
 


whereas this one has 7: 3e, 3f, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44


You have to get the right combination of depth, etc, so that both 
screens have at least one common visual. Try dropping the default depth 
on both screens to 16, then 15, then 8.
