When using xinerama, if I try to run >xrandr, I get the error message "extension 'randr' missing on display >':0.0'." Any clue how to get this working? Keep in mind that I have a >radeon, so I'm not even sure if the drivers support randr. Thanks. Currently, drivers do not contain any special code for RandR support at all, as the features of RandR that are implemented currently do not require driver support - it is in driver independant code. RandR currently only implements resolution changing (resize) and refresh rate changing. Reflection and Rotation are not implemented at all. Also, when Xinerama is active, RandR is disabled. It isn't clear what "the right thing to do" is in Xinerama configurations. RandR will be extended in the future to support rotation and reflection, and may or may not be useable with Xinerama depending on what complexities exist, and various other factors. There is no timetable of when any of these things will be implemented or available to my knowledge other than when Keith and Jim have time to work on them. Hope this helps. -- Mike A.
