[Bug 367776] Re: Kubuntu 9.04 + Radeon X1300 - No dual monitor option in system settings (dual-head)
Same Problem with Kubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx AMD64 default install: Summary: switching off KMS with boot parameter and custom xorg helped (see below), fix for KMS and dualhead detection needed. Detail: In System Settings - Display - Multiple Montors I got the message that on my system I don't have multiple monitors. However I see the cloned view. If I tree to change the settings from clone to left or right display gets totally scrambled (i.e. many coulored lines and noise), only sysrq-k helped (who disabled ctrl-alt-bsp per default !?). Then I tried xrandr: xrandr --output DVI-0 --right-of VGA-0 --mode 1280x1024 with the same result scrambled display! When I used a customized xorg.conf it seemed to wrok but kdm restarts itself after about 10 minutes!!! The only log-entries I found were: kdm.log:QFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /tmp/0659673494/.config/ibus/bus kdm.log:Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. kdm.log:IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon So I changed the file /etc/default/grub: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash radeon.modeset=0 and after a sudo grub-update everything works! There seems to be a problem with raeon driver and KMS with dual-head display!

Testing Kubuntu 10.04 RC (386 desktop CD image), live session behaviour: driver [OK] KDE4 system settings - Display: default: cloned view [OK ? I would prefer dual view, but cloned is probably more safe for live session.] after changing position of the secondary output from cloned to Right of and clicking Apply, it doesn't set up. [BUG] after changing position of secondary + refresh rate (from 72Hz to Auto) and clicking Apply, it does set up dual monitor desktop [OK] (looks like the position-only change gets somewhat ignored by apply) The second menu in display options (something about big virtual desktop over several monitors, but can't recall the exact name) still insists I don't use such setup (although it's already working well). Anyway, I find everything important already in the first display settings menu, so I'm not sure what's that second thing good for. Some unimplemented feature of upstream or something obsolete? Or should it do something interesting for me and it's bug? -- Kubuntu 9.04 + Radeon X1300 - No dual monitor option in system settings (dual-head) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367776 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm testing it with 9.10 now. With default xorg.conf I still get: xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 1280x1280 (desired size 2560x1024) After changing xorg.conf, the xrandr --output DVI-0 --right-of VGA-0 --auto *WORKS*. Visiting System settings - Display will reconfigure X back to cloned view. (and of course there's no way to enable dual head back, it's completely broken for me) After restart I get the cloned view again (as expected), I wonder what's the proper way to configure this automatically, help me in forums if you know. Summary: + driver looks now functional - KDE4 system settings keeps insisting I don't have dual head configuration, Identify outputs identifies both DVI-0 and VGA-0 to be on the same LCD and the other one is cloned. It also resets any hand made xrandr changes. -- Kubuntu 9.04 + Radeon X1300 - No dual monitor option in system settings (dual-head) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367776 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: I have dual head ATI Radeon X1300 card with two LCDs, before 9.04 there was always proprietary driver offered after installation (fglrx), which did work well with dual head. With 9.04 there's no proprietary driver (and according to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1123631 there never will be), so I'm probably stuck to OSS drivers, which is actually a change I like (I don't miss the 3D performance most of the time I use this PC). But I'm also without any dual head support in system settings (I have still to do research if it's possible to tweak it at least trough command line), which renders the Kubuntu 9.04 practically unusable for me. This is critical missing feature for me, just as same as missing keyboard or having no graphics display at all. (I know 1 LCD is better then 0 factually, but in the end it's same, at least in this particular case for me) + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 82P965/G965 Memory Controller Hub [8086:29a0] (rev 02) + Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:514d] + 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV515 PRO [Radeon X1300/X1550 Series] [1002:7142] + Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

The xorg.conf is without any change, just like the Kubuntu 9.04 install process created it. I'm discussing this problem at forums too, I have found one similar thread at: http://phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16460 The suggested 'xrandr --output DVI-0 --right-of VGA-0 --auto' leads to: xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 1280x1280 (desired size 2560x1024) (I think I will have to edit xorg.conf to get bigger virtual resolution to make xrandr to work, I will look into it soon) Another interesting note from that thread related to this bug is: ... KDE4 seems to remember the configuration so you just need to configure it once. And BTW if you open Display Settings it will revert to cloning So even if xrandr workaround will work, it would be still nice to get Display settings fixed anyway. -- Kubuntu 9.04 + Radeon X1300 - No dual monitor option in system settings (dual-head) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367776 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I did change xorg.conf for bigger virtual resolution, now the xrandr doesn't complain about small screen, but I run into different problem. Almost everything I ask xrandr to do with one output, it does it with both of them. Here are some examples and additional information about xrandr: xrandr -v Server reports RandR version 1.3 xrandr -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 2560 x 1024 VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm 1280x1024 60.0*+ 75.0 72.0 60.0* ... some more modes ... DVI-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm 1280x1024 60.0*+ 75.0 72.0 60.0* ... some more modes ... xrandr --verbose --output DVI-0 --pos 200x0 screen 0: 1480x1024 432x298 mm 86.99dpi crtc 0:1280x1024 60.0 +200+0 DVI-0 VGA-0 * does move BOTH screens right by 200px xrandr --verbose --output DVI-0 --off crtc 0:1280x1024 60.0 +0+0 VGA-0 * the single command which actually works only at desired output, and NOT at both, this one does switch the LCD at right off, and the LCD at left remains ON Any other variation trying to set VGA-0 and DVI-0 to have correct mode+position to cover whole virtual screen leads to both LCD show either left or right portion of virtual screen, but always the same one, i.e. cloned view. Final puzzling bit of information for me: xrandr --verbose -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 2560 x 1024 VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (0x4d) normal (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm Identifier: 0x4b Timestamp: 438515 Subpixel: no subpixels Clones: DVI-0 CRTC: 0 CRTCs: 0 1 ... rest (panning and stuff, transform, EDID_DATA, list of modes) is very likely not interesting in this case... DVI-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (0x4d) normal (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm Identifier: 0x4c Timestamp: 438515 Subpixel: no subpixels Clones: VGA-0 CRTC: 0 CRTCs: 0 1 ... * the puzzling bit is Clones: line. This doesn't sound right. After xrandr --output DVI-0 --pos 200x0 the verbose query reveals: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1480 x 1024, maximum 2560 x 1024 VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+200+0 (0x4d) normal (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm Identifier: 0x4b Timestamp: 438515 Subpixel: no subpixels Clones: DVI-0 CRTC: 0 CRTCs: 0 1 Panning:0x0+0+0 Tracking: 0x0+0+0 Border: 0/0/0/0 ...
