As long as Monitor "M1" in Section Screen is not removed/commented out, the monitors cannot be positioned side by side with the error message similar to this: (EE) Monitor(1) cannot be positioned right of Monitor[0] without a mode specified. Specifying modes explicitetly for both monitor doesn't help at all. Only the workaround mentioned above does. Maybe this Monitor entry in Screen section should simply ignored if there is any monitor-<whatever> entry in Device section ?!? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

At least the radeonhd driver tells the RandR subsystem to *exactly* do so. Somehow, this doesn't work as intended any more. (In reply to comment #5 from Stefan Dirsch)

Note the Modeline (apparently 1680x1050 is still not standard), and not the Modes "1680x1050". "PreferredMode" would probably work as well. Apparently radeonhd isn't able to get DDC info from the monitors - needs to be debugged. But the main issue of this bug is that multi-monitor configuration isn't used correctly if the 'Monitor "M1"' line is still included.

Commit or CLOSE/FIXED, as you like.

I suggest to close this one after submitting the patch or the driver update to X11:Drivers:Video/xorg-x11-driver-video and STABLE. Both - you and Egbert - have commit rights. :-)
