Hello list,
I'm trying to configure a desktop system with three monitors attached to two
graphic
cards (Radeon HD 4200 and Radeon HD 4650).
Somehow I seem to be stuck between two suboptimal/half-working solutions.
1) keep an empty xorg.conf - that way the server does provide xinerama
information (via
xrandr , I assume), do the window manager receives propper screen
information.
Unfortunately, with this setup the X server only starts on graphic card.
2) configure both devices and a 'ServerLayout' section in my xorg.conf. Now,
all three monitors
work and I get an X session with two screens. But unfortunately the server
stops to report
xinerama information which causes all sorts of problems with the window
manager. And
I can't even query the number of active screens via xcb.
Is there any way I can configure my server to activate both graphic cards AND
get propper xinerama
information? (N.B.: activating xinerama in the xorg configuration causes the
server to segfault ...).
Here's some version info:
X.Org X Server 1.19.0
Release Date: 2016-11-15
[ 15122.246] X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
[ 15122.246] Build Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian
TIA, Ralf Mattes
