My laptop has 2 video outputs: internal display (LVDS) and external VGA (VGA) monitor (in fact it has also a TV output, which I don't use). It has an Intel 855GM graphics chipset. In general, everything works fine, I can manage both outputs using xrandr. But there is one thing, concerning XV extension. If I enable both outputs to work in a mirrored mode (xrandr --output VGA --same-as LVDS), if I display a movie using XV, the picture is rendered only on external VGA monitor. I know, that it's OK, movie is rendered only on the "first" display. And that's OK. Besides, it seems to be reasonable, that VGA output is then default output, when you use it for presentations.
But what to do if I want to change the order of displays? I've tried to use --primary oprion of xrandr for LVDS, but it didn't work - movies are still displayed on VGA monitor, maybe I used it in a wrong way. -- Łukasz Maśko GG: 2441498 _o) Lukasz.Masko(at)ipipan.waw.pl /\\ Registered Linux User #61028 _\_V Ubuntu: staroafrykańskie słowo oznaczające "Nie umiem zainstalować Debiana" _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
