Hi List,
I really would appreciate your help, because I ran out of ideas!
Basically dual-head works, but only with a little workaround:
If I start X, with the xorg.conf I attached, the second monitor simply
isn't activated, although the desktop is expanded to the second monitor!
I first have to comment out "Screen 0" and "Screen 1" within both
'Section "Device"' for Card0 and Card1. If I then start X, the second
monitor is activated in cloning mode. After "reaktivating" the "Screen
0" and "Screen 1" entries, which I just have commented out, dual-head works.
Do you have an idea what is wrong in my xorg.conf? I "played" around for
example with commenting out "Xinerama", removing the second 'Section
"Device"' for Card1, but without success.
Kind Regards,
Benjamin

Hi Eric, chris & list,
thank you for sending your xorg.conf files to me!
I compared those, the example-files which came with the matrox-Linux
driver and eric, your P650 xorg.conf file to my xorg.conf file, but I
really couldn't find any striking difference. Of course, I tried various
things, but still I have to aktivate the second monitor, by first
starting in clone mode. After I have aktivated the second monitor, I can
"fall back" to dual view, which then works until reboot.
I even tried with acpi disabled, because I had some strange behavior
with aktivating an external monitor attached to an IBM-Notebook as long
as I start with acpi enabled - I couldn't switch to the external
monitor. But in this case acpi has no effect on dual view.
Please have a look at my xorg.conf, which I had attached to my first
posting.
Should I use the Linux driver? What is the mga-modul for, which I can
load by typing kldload mga? But honestly this modul has to effect on the
dual view. What is it about the mga_hal modul which can't be found?
Anyone any idea?
Thanks,
Ben
