Has anyone had any success with dual head on this card ( that is, one monitor
on the vga output and another on the dvi output )?
usually if I do pciconf -v -l with one monitor hooked up only and to the vga
port, I get
drm0@pci1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x00041681 chip=0x514c1002 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'ATI Technologies'
device = 'R200 Radeon 8500 / 8500LE'
class = display
subclass = VGA
as you can see it has the drm driver attached.
If I start with both monitors plugged in I get this:
none0@pci1:0:0: class=0x030000 card=0x00041681 chip=0x514c1002 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
vendor = 'ATI Technologies'
device = 'R200 Radeon 8500 / 8500LE'
class = display
subclass = VGA
what happened with the driver? The text in the console also looked blurry.
If I go to startx I get a no screens found error.
Does anyone know about this, had any experience, now where to look, or wether
this is more a freebsd current type question?
Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated, I really want to get dual
screen happening
Thanks in advance
David
