HP nc6400 / x1300: Working. Trouble with attached Screen
Hi, I did try the radeonhd driver on my laptop. The debian/experimental packages did not work directly (had to add the info of conntest and rebuild) but the latest git seem to work out of the box. There is although a need for some video memory cleaning before drawing initial screen, it's no big deal but could make a bad impression on 'standard' users :) The only major problems i have right now is when connecting the laptop on the port replicator (haven't tried the included VGA output) to use the DVI output. The screen seems to be correctly detected and the video is sent to both monitor in clone mode, but the resolution used is the smallest available. The fglrx driver used the best resolution of the two screen and activated the X11 virtual screen on the smallest one. _Output of conntest:_ Checking connectors on 0x714A, 0x103C, 0x30AC (@01:00:00): Load Detection: RHD_OUTPUT_TMDSA HotPlug: RHD_HPD_0 DDC: RHD_DDC_1 LVDS Info: 18bits, dual link, LDI Panel found.

I am not surprised: http://packages.debian.org/experimental/xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd talks of "xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd_0.0.1+git20071006-1" and that timestamp does look pretty ancient. -- Hans Ulrich Niedermann -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: radeonhd+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: radeonhd+help@opensuse.org
