  • Radeon r480 & Multiseat

    I'm trying to get a multiseat setup running on my system. I have a card with an r480 chip (X800 GTO) which has both VGA and DVI outputs. However, I'm unable to get multiseat to work at all. Below is my xorg.conf:

    Code:

    However, I'm getting the following error now:

    Code:
    Backtrace:
    0: /usr/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x85) [0x80d0c73]
    
    Fatal server error:
    Caught signal 11.  Server aborting

    Any ideas?
