 |
|
Hello all, I was hoping someone could help me as I am experience a irritating crash on my fluxbox.
I've uploaded a video to youtube to show what is going on. I can startx and launch fluxbox, but if you notice the middle monitor shows my mouse all distorted and such and when I try to move the mouse to the very far left monitor, x crashes and I must reboot in order to restore gentoo.
Here is youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezwQeoclK58
Tail of my xorg log:

This is just a wild guess because I generally don't use ATI graphics and the only one in my notebook is not compatible with the current closed source driver (hardware too old). But here is, what I think might be the problem:
Your using the ati closed source driver in a big_desktop mode (or twinview on nvidia). Because of this you are expanding your desktop resolution to the combined resolution of your 3 monitors, which will probably exceed the max buffer size for the driver. I remember having problems on my notebook to get xinerama running with only 2 monitors in a side-by-side configuration (internal display 1400x1050, external 1280x1024). This setup resulted in a garbled mouse curson an no 3d hardwar accel on the right side of the right monitor because the buffer auf the closed source driver was limited to 2048x2048 pixels.
After changing to have the bufers aligned ontop of each other my problems went away. So I think you should check:
a) the doc for the ati driver to figure out if you are exeeding any buffer sizes
b) maybe switch to xinerama setup without "big desktop" which should work just fine if you are not needing 3d accel on all monitors
hope this will help you |
