Here first some SW- and HW-Details:
SW:
Kubuntu 8.10 Intrepid x64
Kernel: 2.6.27-9-generic
FGLRX-Version: 8.56.4
Catalyst Version: 8.53
OpenGL-Version: 1.4 (2.1.8304 Release)
I first installed the version from restricted manager / jockey and then updated the
actual Catalyst 8.12 driver from the ATI/AMD driver website
HW:
Acer Aspire 5024 WLMi
ATI Mobility Radeon X700 128 MB (PCIE)
The problem is, when i put an external monitor (e.g. CRT) on the external
VGA-connector or a TV Screen on the S-Video-Output and start Xorg in
"Clone-Mode" everything is fine.
I got some problems with the video-overlay. I play a video in the e.g. vlc-window
and I set the ''Option ' ' OverlayOnCRTC2" "1 ' ' , but there is no fullscreen overlay.
But thats another problem I think, also it's related to amdxmm.so
So the problem occurs when I configure the second monitor or TV-Screen as
an independent desktop (Dual-Head) with and/or without Xinerama or BigDesktop.
I tried a all combinations of many Options and there values in xorg.conf.
I think I can't influence these behaviour by the xorg.conf.
Remember: Clone mode works!
When I move "/usr/lib/xorg/modules/amdxmm.so" to another directory or
deleting it, Xorg starts normal with the Dual-Head-Configuration.
BUT: When I delete "amdxmm.so" XVideo is not longer active.
I think it is possibly the interface between XVideo and fglrx???
