Anyone have any luck getting a dual monitor setup going in RHEL? I've installed the latest drivers, amdcccle, etc.
When I run amdcccle, only one of the displays is listed in the Display Manager.
BTW, this is a single graphics card setup, with a split on the output. Works fine when I boot into XP, just not in Red Hat.
Thanks.

Also, another thing I meant to add was does it work if you use aticonfig instead of amdcccle? Either setting up dual head or Big Desktop? You could also try the aticonfig Dynamic Display Management Options. aticonfig --query-monitorMichael Larabel

That was a good suggestion... this seems like a clue:
aticonfig --query-monitor
Connected monitors: crt1, crt2
Enabled monitors: crt2
So then I tried:
aticonfig --enable-monitor crt1,crt2
and lo and behold, my second monitor turned on! Now they're in "clone" mode, I'm going to try to enable the big desktop with aticonfig.

Need Help again with Dual-head
I had to reinstall my system last week, and the display is now in a funny mode I can't seem to change.
I have a Y-connector from the analog output of the graphics card going into the analog inputs of two monitors.
The mouse travels across both displays, but each desktop is independent - I can't drag windows from one desktop to the other. It's not in "clone" mode, but it's not in "Big Desktop" either. I would like to get "Big Desktop" mode working again, but any changes I make to xorg.conf seem to lock up the system. Running amdcccle has no effect - the program doesn't modify xorg.conf, even though the permissions are opened up.
If I use system-config-display, the resulting xorg.conf file causes the system to lock up when I restart the X server.
Here are my details:
OS - RHEL4
Card - Radeon X600
Driver Version - 8.36.5
Catalyst Control Version - 0.9
Any light that someone can shed on this would be appreciated.
