A full drm.debug=6 dmesg, Xorg.0.log and xrandr --verbose would be useful starting point to distangling what is going on. Is this an 830gm or an 845g? google says 830gm, so there should be 2 crtcs available for you to drive the two outputs independently, and we need to find out what is going wrong. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
