Re: Still a few doubts about Zaphod and Radeon --SOLVED--
WOOHOO! I got joy My steps to this solution were 1) Set up a minimal configuration w/ JUST the radeon in ZaphodHead mode This worked perfectly. Then, I added a third Device, Monitor, and Screen section for the onboard intel video *AFTER* the radeon in the xorg.conf file (Order ought not matter ... and bearings ought not wear and I ought not grow old and die :) ) Here's the entirety of my xorg.conf in case anyone wants to have a similar configuration Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "X.org Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 Screen 1 "Screen1" LeftOf "Screen0" Screen2 "Screen2" Leftof "Screen1" InputDevice"Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice"Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "Files" ModulePath "/usr/lib/xorg/modules" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi/:unscaled" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/Type1" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/100dpi" FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/75dpi" FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType" FontPath "built-ins" EndSection Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "dri" Load "extmod" Load "record" Load "glx" Load "dri2" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option"Protocol" "auto" Option"Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option"ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "HWP" ModelName"HP L1745" HorizSync30.0 - 83.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 76.0 Option"DPMS" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor1" VendorName "HWP" ModelName"HP L1745" HorizSync30.0 - 83.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 76.0 Option"DPMS" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier"Monitor2" VendorName"HP" ModelName"HP 2207w" EndSection Section "Device" Screen0 Identifier "Card0" Driver "radeon" VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc" BoardName "Radeon RV250 If [Radeon 9000]" BusID "PCI:10:0:0" Option"ZaphodHeads" "VGA-0" EndSection Section "Device" Screen1 Identifier "Card1" Driver "radeon" VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc" BoardName "Radeon RV250 If [Radeon 9000]" BusID "PCI:10:0:0" Option"ZaphodHeads" "DVI-0" EndSection Section"Device" Identifier "Card2" Driver "intel" VendorName "Intel Corporation" BoardName "82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller" BusID "PCI:0:2:0" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Card0" Monitor"Monitor0" SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 1 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 4 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 8 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 15 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen1" Device "Card1" Monitor"Monitor1" SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 1 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 4 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 8 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 15 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen2" Device "Card2" Monitor"Monitor2" SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 1 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 4 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 8 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 15 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 16 EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection ___ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
Still a few doubts about Zaphod and Radeon
I feel that I have arrived at a fortuitous time in that Zaphod is (apparently) back I'm a greybeard and I *like* each of my monitors to have it's own X screen (:0.0, :0.1 and :0.2) for reasons that probably make sense to nobody but me. I have a IBM ThinkCentre with Intel 915 graphics on the motherboard and a Radeon 9000 series dual VGA PCI card. The motherboard video is driving a 22" HP LCD and the Radeon is driving a pair of HP 17" 4:3 LCDs. After a side trip into "my window manager sucks" land, and me blaming the good folks over at GDM for compiz (and more importantly my own) lossage, I now have all three displays with distinct video in a "usable but not quite perfect" configuration. I'm up to two X screens, :0.0 ( the IGP video) and the radeon card driving a virtual 2560x1024 frame buffer driving the other two monitors. I saw Alex Deuchar's recent response on the list to Samud and I immediately tried to duplicate (as close as possible) their results, but without luck. Alex writes: "You need to add Screen 0 and Screen 1 to your device sections" Is this correct? When I tried to do this, I got a coredump The last few lines are: (II) Loading sub module "fb" (II) LoadModule: "fb" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libfb.so (II) Module fb: vendor="X.Org Foundation" compiled for 1.7.6, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: X.Org ANSI C Emulation, version 0.4 (II) RADEON(1): TOTO SAYS d010 Backtrace: 0: Xorg (xorg_backtrace+0x3b) [0x80e937b] 1: Xorg (0x8048000+0x61c7d) [0x80a9c7d] 2: (vdso) (__kernel_rt_sigreturn+0x0) [0xb76f3410] 3: Xorg (InitOutput+0x5c8) [0x80b9c88] 4: Xorg (0x8048000+0x1ebbb) [0x8066bbb] 5: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (__libc_start_main+0xe6) [0xb742bbd6] 6: Xorg (0x8048000+0x1e961) [0x8066961] Segmentation fault at address 0x7200328e Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault).
