--- Comment #38 from Leif Gruenwoldt
When you used the atombios_support branch you forgot to set the option: Option "UseAtomBIOS" "True" Thus you are using the same mode setting as the other driver, therefore I expect the same behavior regarding the external DVI. Maybe you can retest with the option set. I would like to see if this makes a difference for the native 1900x1200 display mode.
Sorry for the delay, long weekend in Canada :) I tried out the UseAtomBIOS option. When I run plain X from the command line I see both my laptop *and* external DVI light up! The resolutions are whacky, especially on the external DVI. See comment #37 for the xorg log. However when I log into my gnome desktop using atom bios...it's a good news and bad news thing. Good News: My external DVI monitor lights up with 1920x1200 resolution this time! Bad News: 1) My laptop panel doesn't light up anymore. I tried turning it on manually with xrandr and it says: xrandr --output PANEL --auto xrandr: Configure crtc 1 failed 2) The external DVI display has some horizontal flickering problems. It's not unusable, but annoying. I will attach the xorg log from logging into the desktop. It's quite different at quick glance. Not sure why again. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-team mailing list xorg-team@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-team -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org
