 Posted: Mon Jun 04, 2007 5:05 pm Post subject: Can't use >=ati-drivers-8.35.5 with dual monitors |
 |
|
My dual-head configuration worked just fine until the ati-drivers update from 8.34.8 to 8.35.5.
The monitor keeps blank, but Kpager shows a stretched desktop, the mouse cursor goes to the blanked side, and I can also move windows to that side, as if the dual-head configuration were working correctly.
When on Fluxbox, panel keeps centralized on the stretched desktop, half on my LCD and half on the blank screen. What can I do to make my monitor light up again? If I downgrade ati-drivers, everything works as before, but I want to keep with the "stable" drivers.
I have a HP Pavilion zv6000 laptop, with a 1280x800 display, and an old 17" CRT display.
What can I do to solve that issue?

Hi,
for general diagnosis we would need
| Code: | | cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE |
| Code: | | cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW |
and later on also the content of
First impression would be that the second screen is set to an unsupported resolution
and shuts itself down to avoid damage.

Here it goes:
| Code: |
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE

(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
(EE) Failed to load module "xtt" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib64/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering

Hi,
to solve this one : | Quote: | (EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib64/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727)
(EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering |
you should add :
| Code: |
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AIGLX" "FALSE"
EndSection
|
And I manage to get the dual screen working last week end, so my xorg.conf is still dirty but here it is :
| Code: |

It seems that the only thing necessary for the dual screen is this part :
| Code: |
Option "OverlayOnCRTC2" "1"
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "Mode2" "1280x800"
Option "VRefresh2" "75"
|
I have to test to delete the second monitor section
I hope it helped you. |

I seem to have exactly the same problem, but I'm lacking any errors in the log at all...
| Code: | homestar ~ # grep WW /var/log/Xorg.0.log

(WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found

(WW) LoadModule: given non-canonical module name "glesx.so"
(WW) fglrx(0): Option "VendorName" is not used
(WW) fglrx(0): Option "ModelName" is not used
homestar ~ # grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
