XFree86 4.2, multihead (xinerama), problems with a nvidia geforce2-MX and either a trident or stealth cards

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I can't seem to get both screens going in multihead using the following cards:

Jaton 3DForce2 MX-32 (nvidia geforce2-MX) AGP card as primary.

And either of the two following cards as PCI secondary:

Diamond Stealth II S220

When this card is used, I get the second screen OK, but the screen is 
displaced so that the sides meet in the middle.  The mouse is oriented OK 
with where the actual underlying image should be.  I can select and move 
objects in that window as if they were where they were supposed to be.

Trident TGUI 9680-1

When this card is used, I don't get the second screen and when I try to log 
out of the desktop, the screen hangs and I shut down to get back in.

Version 4.2 of XFree86 is supposed to have improved support for the TGUI 
Trident cards.  What is going on?  I expected I might have had problems with 
the Stealth card, but I got the Trident card to replace the Stealth card in 
order make multihead possible in Linux.  The Trident card worked with my 
Monster Fusion card in Red Hat 7.2.  Is my Jaton card the problem?
