Re: XFree86-4.0.3-6 & 2nd Monitor

[Alex Deucher <agd5f yahoo com>]

I suspect it may be a bug in the driver because based on the xfree86
log that was sent to the list, I never saw the second instance of the
radeon driver start (i.e., radeon(0) is there, but not radeon(1)).  It
doesn't look like the shared entity code path is even being taken.  My
guess, without looking at the code, is that the check for dualhead,
might be missing your chipset, or perhaps the logic got screwed up at
some point.  Dualhead seems to work fine on my m6 based laptop, but
then again I'm using a semi-custom compiled radeon driver based on
4.3.0.  something might have gotten broken in the recent redhat code
updates.  I'd check the logic in the redhat version of RadeonPreInit()
and RadeonProbe().  I'll try and check them myself, maybe tomorrow...
