I have a Tyan Tachyon G9700 Pro and I'm running Mandrake 9.x
I can get both monitors to come up fine, but Xinerama won't
turn on. I get ZERO errors or relevant warnings in the Xfree
log. It's a real mystery to me. It *always* comes up in clone
mode. The log file shows Xinerama enabled. There is, of course,
no problem in windoze.
I got snapshot and built World, but then I couldn't get
anything to work, as I got some error about not being able
to locate Core Pointer. I backed that out by reinstalling
the RPMS that came with Mandrake. I may be able to torq on
this to make it all work, or at least get it to give me more
debug. But later..
The only thing that seems to be different about the Tyan and
other G9700s is that the XF86Config-4's on the net I've seen
have both the VGA and DVI devices as "1:0:0", and linux wants
the Tyan's devices to be "1:0:0" and "1:0:1", or it's not
going to play.
Please, I must enjoy my 3200x1600 backdrops from digital
blasphemy.. they are quite nice..
