Hi. Xorg 7.1.1 (from CentOS 5.4) crashes when I bring up the "Display" or "Screen Resolution" control panels -- this is on a Lenovo ThinkPad T61.
I am trying to configure an extended desktop using the laptop screen and an external monitor connected through the docking station - right now I get a duplicate image and the external monitor is at a very low resolution. I am including my Xorg.log, could somebody help me sort this out, please, or point me in the right direction? I do see this: (WW) intel: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found (--) PCI:*(0:2:0) Intel Corporation unknown chipset (0x2a02) rev 12, Mem @ 0xf8100000/20, 0xe0000000/28, I/O @ 0x1800/3 (--) PCI: (0:2:1) Intel Corporation unknown chipset (0x2a03) rev 12, Mem @ 0xf8200000/20 So I thought I might need a special video driver. http://www.linlap.com/wiki/ibm-lenovo+thinkpad+t61 says the T61 laptop graphics should work OK with recent Linux distros. I tried the xorg.conf mod in http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Fedora_8_on_a_T61#Graphics but X crashes when I run xrandr. (Fedora 8 is the closest thing I could find to CentOS 5 when googling this issue.) I went on the vendor website but there was no driver available except for an NVIDIA driver for SUSE, but (a) my laptop does not have an NVIDIA device, and (b) I am running CentOS. Help? Thanks, -at P.S. xorg.conf included as well: Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Synaptics" "CorePointer" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Synaptics" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "intel" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
