Hi!

I have finally decided to emerge xf86-video-intel-2.21.12 and now it no longer crashes at login screen with dual monitor.

But now that login screen of SLIM is displayed on 'wrong' monitor(TV), same with console output.

Tried with xorg.conf although it is really desirable to run without any special configuration if possible

Code:
Section "Device"
        Identifier "Intel Graphics"
        Option     "Monitor-DP1"     "DP"
        Option     "Monitor-HDMI2"   "HDMI"
        Driver     "intel"
        Option     "AccelMethod"     "sna"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "DP"
        Option     "Primary"         "true"
        Option     "PreferredMode"   "1920x1080"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "HDMI"
        Option     "RightOf"         "DP"
EndSection

but DP monitor stays in standby even in enlightenment-0.17.3(almost always with segv'd). Every time to turn it on I need

Code:
xrandr --output DP1 --mode 1920x1080 --rate 60

I've had this problem too. I solved it by switching the "primary" display in my BIOS. This swaps the displays.

You may have to adjust xorg.conf also to match the change.

It appears that option option has no effect in my case.
Bios splash screen and Grub menu are displayed on both screens(1080p50), but not boot messages later.

Turning on TV will disconnect monitor again!
