Hello all, I dont know who exactly was following this
thread, but I know that there were at least a few
people asking for my solution so here it is.
Basically what I did was to allow the "Applications ->
System Settings -> Display" tool to create a new
xorg.conf file based on a dual monitor settup using
the "radeon" driver. Then, I just had to add a few
options to the first "Section "Device"" within the
file to make it acctually work. The section is as
follows:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "radeon"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "ATI Radeon 9200"
Option "DDCMode" "on" # I did this
Option "MergedFB" "on" # and this
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "CRT2Position" "LeftOf" # and this
Screen 0
EndSection
Everything else I left as it was, then after a reboot
all was working fine.
I have also tried it with the fglrx drivers from ATI,
but as of right now, (unless someone here can tell me
a good reason to use them), I am going to say that
they are not worth the hassle. I did manage to get
them installed, I even ran the fglrxconfig program,
set it all up and it appeared to be ok, but it was
still using the mesa instead of the ATI drivers. I
know that this can be done, but it is such a huge deal
to get the ATI fglrx installed that I am not going to
mess with it right now - although I wouldnt mind
having them working, I just dont have enough hair to
keep pulling it out.
My complete, working xorg.conf file is attached for
anyone who may want/need to look at it.
Thanks again to all who helped, now on to the next
struggle - whatever it may be
