Hi,
I'm playing around with a multi-head setup and ran into some problem. I have a Radeon HD4550 and try have a monitor and TV virtually side by side. I use the DVI for the "main" monitor and the HDMI as a second.
The problem is that GDM and Gnome places login screen, menu- and status-bar on the TV though the monitor is the one i define in the screen section of xorg.conf. For some reason fglrx identifies the TV as DFP1 and the monitor as DFP5, which may confuse Gnome. I've also tried using the Gnome Display Preferences and can rearange the screens and other things, but I cannot choose which shall be main.
Any clues to how to get it right?
Some facts:
Gnome 2.26, xorg-server 1.6.2-r1 and ati-drivers 9.7
The layout parts of xorg.conf:
| Code: |
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "ServerLayout"
Screen 0 "Screen" 0 0
Option "AIGLX" "true"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
