I am trying to configure my video card (ATI Radeon X1300) to use two monitors. Now i can see in both the same duplicate screen.
Can somebody help me?, in the forums i did not find a solution.
One of the problems I find in Lenny is that the xorg.conf file does not contain the same configuration than in previous Debian versions.
This is my current file:
I'm glad you got that working, but you should be aware that 9.3 is the last version of fglrx that supports your GPU. You will not be able to upgrade to a newer version and if you upgrade your kernel to something newer than 2.6.27.* or your X server to something newer than 1.5.* you will no longer be able to use that driver.
Yes, the open source driver fully supports xrandr. Obviously there was some error in the xorg.conf file I posted above (other than the missing "EndSection"). We would need to see the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file that was generated to figure out what the problem was.
