Hi all, I was looking around for a fix to the problem discovered a short while ago with respect to Xfree86 and multihead, and found something... From the changelog from the cvs tree for X(http://www.xfree86.org/cvs/changes.html) i noticed a fix had been done for the int10 problem. A patch is available here: http://bugs.xfree86.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6 Steps I took to resolve this issue: extracted the Xfree86-4-Servers port, slightly modified the diff so it would patch (the paths to the files) patched it, installed, configured X as it was before with the multiple heads, restarted X, and it worked! My system has an AGP nvidia GF2 card as well as a PCI Matrox Mistique card. Any ideas as to how long until we'll see this patch incorporated into the Xfree86 port, or are we just waiting for 4.3.1 to be released? --Shaun
