I'm piloting an ATI X700 card with the radeonfb driver. Although X700 is dual head, I don't see any output on the second monitor, neither I'm able to set up a suitable mode for activating it. My goal would be to have a single /dev/fb0 being able to render on a virtual screen being the horizontal sum of the two heads. Can I achieve this result with a proper usage of radeonfb? Thanks! luigi
