Hi,

So I make that change, and now I see:

Fatal Server error:
Requested Entity already in use!

I assume that's a driver issue, and not resolvable by simple configuration 
file changes?

Dualhead ATI Radeon VE

[Edward C. Lang]

Hi,

I'm having some issues with attempting to get dualhead X working on this
Radeon VE. The error in /var/log/XFree86.0.log is:

(==) ServerLayout Multihead X
(**) |--Screen CentreScreen (0)
(**) |   |--Monitor Sony
(**) |   |--Device Radeon_VE0
(EE) Screen CoffeeScreen doesn't exist: deleting placement
(**) |--Input Device Generic Keyboard

(I have my coffee mug in front of my Diamondtron, which is to the right of my
keyboard and mouse.)

I've attached my current /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file - are there any obvious,
or not so obvious, errors in it? Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

Edward.

Drugs are bad. You should value your intelligence and not waste it.
