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...
