Hi Gurus ;-)
I updated my Athlon/1.2 1G Dual Screen SuSE 11.0 to 11.1 last Weekend
and Twinview or Clone when activated with SaX2 caused a signal 11 when
testing the new configured xorg.conf.
Before the update the configuration worked fine. The used hardware is a
Matrox MGA G400 AGP with two HP monitors HP A4033A and HP A4331A, which
are relatively tolerant with the frequencies.
Single screen works fine. But dual scren does not work at all. I even
tried a complete new installation to verify wether an update problem
could have caused the problem. But even this did not work.
I always get the error message that I have to look in
/var/log/Xorg.99.log and here I see at all tried screen modi either bad
mode clock/interlace/doublescan or hsync out of range or no mode of this
name or width too large for virtual size.
At the end of this log file is then
Fatal server error:
Caught signal 11. Server aborting
The version of the used X-server is 1.5.2
I tried it only with the SaX2 GUI to create the twinview (xinerama) or
cloned dual head configuration.
I hope someone is able to tell me whether I'm doing wrong or a magic
keyword is missing or a known or unknown bug is preventing to use the
twinview screen usage.
