Well, no, the intel driver didn't bind because the OP booted into a configuration that can't possibly work: > [3661641.851] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-3.2.13-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64 root=/dev/md1 ro text nomodeset 'nomodeset' -> no kms -> no intel driver. Once you've fixed that, if things still don't work, refer to the static multihead configuration guide here: http://intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html and just pick an output to enable; or, force it one on the kernel command line by saying "video=VGA-1:e" to force it to be considered "enabled". - ajax -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
