Hi List,
I can manage it to get the dual head mode running correctly.
I have an IBM Lenovo T60 laptop, and OpenSuSE 10.3 installed on it, with a
Radeon Mobility X1400 on it.
I've tried several ways to get my laptop TFT screen with a resolution of
168ßx1050 and my LCD screen on my desk with a resolution of 1280x1024
running.
Using SAX, I will only get one screen working correctly, the one with the
higher resolution. On the other sreen, the desktop image doesn't fit into
the screen, it's boarders remain outside. On my second screen on my desk I
can't achieve a resolution of more then 1024x768.
My second way was to try using aticonfig. In detail I've used the
following command:
aticonfig --initial=dual-head --desktop-setup=clone
--resolution=Screen0,1680x1050 --resolution=Screen1,1280x1024
--hsync=Screen0,50-60 --vrefresh=Screen0,60 --hsync=Screen1,50-60
--vrefresh=Screen1,60
The resulting xorg.conf will follow at the end of the Email. First let me
describe, what is happening: The laptops screen (1680x1050) is displayed
correctly, the DELL 1907 FPT on my desk contains again a display, which
doesn't fit into the screen. However, the resolution is not ar 1280x1024.
Follwoing another hint I've tried to "tune" my screens using the tool
application->system->configuration->ATI graphics adapter settings. However
this tool forces me to restart the laptopn with the turn off und turn on
button, because the laptop didn't react to anything after applying
changes.
Invoking SAX after such an aticonfig shows resolution of 600x800, so SAX
and aticonfig don't really understand each other, or clearer said: SAX
doesn't understand aticonfig configurations.
So what I would like to have from you experts now is a hint what is still
wrong in my xorg.conf. I rellay need help...
Cheers
Alexander
