looks like the post size limit ate my first attempt to post this. Anyway, I was finally able to access DRI cvs (from dri.freedesktop.org), so I pulled the latest tree and created a radeon mergedfb patch against it. I've done some testing and it seems to work fine. The patch only touches the 2D driver. I talked to Kevin E. Marin about merging it and he suggested I get it into the DRI tree. I think this patch adds a useful feature and I'd like to see it get merged. Thoughts?
Patch and notes about it are available here: http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=276 For those of you that aren't familiar with it, mergedfb creates a single large framebuffer and then positions the 2 crtcs as vieports into it. Since it is a single framebuffer, the DRI works on both heads. It not only provides dualhead 3D, but also has some otehr nice features that are not available with xinerama based dualhead mode.
