Re: [XFree86] Radeon 9200: DRI on one head and 2d on second head ?
Alex Deucher [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: It sounds like what you may want is my radeon driver with mergedfb support. It uses each crtc as a viewport into a single shared framebuffer so the DRI works on both heads: http://dri.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/MergedFB Looks like it. Is it provided with XFree 4.3.0 or 4.4.0 ? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86

Your goal will be *much* harder to reach without cooperation from distributions. My best guess is that most people *and* corporate user will not use XFree4.4. By most people, I mean people without time or skill to grab the sources, compile and iron out integration problems. I don't think that corporation will mind the new licence (I may be wrong) but they will not discard the support from distributors.

No. But the new licence is not considered to be acceptable from most people involved in distributions. For instance, Debian maintainer (Branden Robinson) will not package Xfree4.4 will its new licence. Read the slashdot links for further details.

[XFree86] Radeon 9200: DRI on one head and 2d on second head ?
Hello I'm trying to setup an ATI Redeon 9200 card for a multimedia PC. The goal is to be able to connect a video projector on the DVI head (screen 1) and the monitor on the main head (screen 0). And my kid would be rather disapointed if he can no longer play with gltron on the main screen, so I need a working DRI on the main head. With Xfree 4.3.0, I am able to setup DRI on one head, *or* set up a dual head (2 screens setup). But in the latter case, the DRI is disabled: Radeon driver does not support DRI with dual head setup even if the NoAccel option is set in the second Device. IS this statement correct or did I miss something ? So I was considering to set up a single head configuration for X on the main head and set up a frame buffer on the second head. Thus I could use directly the -vo fbdev and display the video directly on the second head without going through X. Is that possible ? (OK, I'm drifting off-topic) Does anyone have a pointer and how to set up a radeon frame buffer on the second head ? Thanks for any help. ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
