 |
|
Hello All!
I'm working on my Intel 855gm graphic-card and nothing goes! I don't know what else i can do. I've read every kind about it but can't get my second monitor working or the tv.
I would be glad if somebody would find some failure in my xorg.conf:

xorg 6.8.2 isn't able to use the dual-head features of the Intel 855GM properly. It is allegedly fixed in the latest xorg 6.9/7.0 release, but I guess it's going to be a lot of time before that is marked stable.
Since fixing that bug took a while, the person who fixed the bug put a precompiled version of the i810 driver online for the purpose of copying into the middle of an existing xorg installation, so people could test it without mucking about.
Download the i810_drv.o driver from http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/intel.html , then go to the /usr/lib/modules/drivers/ directory, backup the old driver (just in case) and put the new one in its place. After a restart of xorg (and maybe a bit of fine-tuning xorg.conf) dual-head should work. Well, it does for me anyway! |
