    fglrx 8.42.3 dual-head clone different resolutions

    hi, Id like to know how to set up dual head in clone mode with different res, since at the moment the big desktop sucks and using right\left of will disable compiz. in aticonfig --help I read:
    --dtop, --desktop-setup=STRING
    clone 2 screens - same content, allows for different refresh rates/resolutions

    but how to set different res? I tried with --mode2=W1xH1,W2XH2,W3xH3,...
    but it didnt work, it doesnt modify my xorg.conf
    any idea?

      The current config work fine :

      Code:
      # xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
