X dual-screen woes with ATI card
 
hi,

I am trying to get DualHead (two seperate screens) working with an 9600XT under Fedora Core2 (X.org server). I have the fglrx driver running just fine and I also have the second screen come up, but it is all garbled and unreadable. It also looks as if it would mirror some of the first screen's content (screen 2 garbage changes when screen 1 updates).

I get some error messages in X logs:

Code:
drmOpenDevice: minor is 14
drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card14
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed
(II) fglrx(1): [drm] drmOpen failed
(EE) fglrx(1): DRIScreenInit failed!
(WW) fglrx(1): ***********************************************
(WW) fglrx(1): * DRI initialization failed!                  *
(WW) fglrx(1): * (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad) *
(WW) fglrx(1): * 2D acceleraton available (MMIO)            *
(WW) fglrx(1): * no 3D acceleration available                *
(WW) fglrx(1): ********************************************* *
(EE) fglrx(1): DRI initialization for 2nd screen failed - aborting!
Any ideas?

You have to post your XFreeConfig under /etc/X11

You will not get any help without a posted config file, just a note next time.....if it has a config file ....post it.
