Dual head on an ATI9600 and SuSE9.3???
Has anyone managed to get dualhead working with SuSE9.3 using an ATI 9600 video card? I've been fighting with it for a while now... and not getting anywhere. System config: AMDx64 3000+ ATI9600 video (Identified as RV350 AS) I've installed the fglrx drive and the kernel modules as the intructions say on the SuSE ftp site. I've got the fglrx driver working with one monitor just fine. When I try to setup dual monitor it fails miserably. It tries to start X and fails... back to the command line. I'm out of ideas.... does anyone have any suggestions... or pointers for getting this working? Extra info.............. startx as user tries to start up X, but errors out with: Fatal server error: __glExtensionInit: AddExtensions failed Sometimes (depending on what options I enable in xorg.conf) I also get a bunch of unresolved symbol errors just before the AddExtensions failed error... something like this: Symbol firegl_AllocCache from module /usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/drivers/fglrx_drv.o is unresolved lspci gives me: ------------- 0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 AS [Radeon 9600 AS] (prog-if 00 [VGA]) Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.: Unknown device 9516 Flags: bus master, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 255, IRQ 209 Memory at b0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] I/O ports at a800 [size=256] Memory at cfef0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K] Expansion ROM at cfec0000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [58] AGP version 3.0 Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 0000:01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV350 ??
