Well, MonitorLayout didn't change anything. I think the problem is due to the agpgart.o module not loading. Apperently there's a problem with KT400/600 AGP and agpgart.o -- the mainboard uses AGP 3.0, and agpgart.o doesn't support it in this version.

Does anyone know in which kernel version agpgart.o supports KT400 AGP correctly?

your log looks fine.  the only thing I see is that direct rendering is
disable because AGP is not available.  you probably need to make sure
the apggart kernel module is loaded.  I load the agpgart.o and radeon.o
kernel modules in my rc.local script.

in regards to the weird behavior, you might also want to disable
fastwrites.

The behavior you are seeing when you switch modes (ctrl-alt-+) is
expected.  you are swithing between a side by side mode
(1024x768-1024x768) and a clone mode (1024x768).  in the clone mode the
both viewports look into the same part of the framebuffer.

you can try adding:

Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT, CRT"

if you are using two CRT monitors.  if you are using a DVI flatpanel
and a CRT then try:

Option "MonitorLayout" "TDMS, CRT"

you can also try changing "CRT2Position" from "LeftOf" to "RightOf"
it shouldn't make a difference, but it's worth a shot.

remove these lines from your config:

       Option      "CloneDisplay" "0"
       Screen      0
       Option      "EnablePageFlip" "true"



Removed them, didn't change anything. I did notice something though -- when I start gnome on X, I get the same image on both screens and when
I moved the cursor out of the visible screen area it's lost (the cursor) on both screen. If I do Ctrl-Alt-+ to change resolution then when I
move the cursor out of the visible area the screen "moves" to the side as I move the cursor, like it is using a higher resolution that it can't
show on the monitor.



if that doesn't work send your xfree86 log.



XFree86 log is attached. I tried figuring out what was going there, but

it meant nothing to me.

Thanks for your help.

Alon.
