Try xfree86 cvs. some oems wire their dacs differently. cvs has code to deal with certain situations. use: Option "MonitorLayout" "tdms, none" for a single dvi monitor. glibc 2.2 systems can get cvs binaries here: http://www.xfree86.org/~alanh/ for glibc 2.3 systems you will probably have to build your own driver. you can also try my cvs mergedfb binaires, however, they contain my mergedfb patch. http://www.botchco.com/alex/radeon/mergedfb/cvs/cvs-2003-7-31/final/ Alex -------------------------------------- Hi all. I did search the archives, and found someone with an identical problem, but no resolution (although there did appear to be a suggestion...) As subject - I have a Radeon 9200, which runs XFree86 fine. However, video only comes out of the VGA socket, not the DVI one. The DVI socket works, because the console can be seen in it. If I attempt to run X with the monitor plugged into the DVI, the screen goes blank and it then claims there is no signal, then input signal out of range. The video is coming out of the VGA port at this point though, which I can switch to (usually, when using the DVI, there wouldn't be video coming out of the VGA port, it seems). Quitting X and the VGA port goes videoless again, but video does not return to the DVI. I won't paste full logs unless asked, but there were some lines which seemed relevant to my untrained eye: (II) Primary Device is: PCI 02:00:0 (II) ATI: Candidate "Device" section "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon RV280 [Radeon 9200]". (WW) ATI: PCI/AGP Mach64 in slot 2:0:1 could not be detected! (--) Assigning device section with no busID to primary device (WW) RADEON: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:2:0:1) found (--) Chipset ATI Radeon 9200 5961 (AGP) found (this card is sitting in an AGP slot of an nVidia nForce motherboard, which has onboard dual-head capable graphics, but which I'm not attempting to use). I'm trying to drive a flat panel at 1280x1024 (its native resolution), the X version is 4.3 from the Debian experimental respository, kernel is 2.6.0-test2. X works great in analogue, so I'm not desperate for a fix, but if anyone can suggest something I'm willing to spend some time fiddling and testing to get it working. I haven't ever even seen the XFree86 source, but I'm fairly competent at compiling/etc... Any suggestions much appreciated :) Cheers, Alex. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
