That's what I was suspecting as well. This makes it a little tougher since
I have double monitors and after moving over to using xrandr this got a
lot easier to configure than before.
What the log doesn't tell me however, is the Identifier for the
graphics-card. Or I'm unable to read it from the log.
There isn't any way to dictate options for the radeon driver, without
having to handcode sections for monitors and screens as well?
Did you actually open either of those links? On a single display system,
those 3 files need be as little as 3-6 lines long to function, including
header, footer and identifier. I should think not all that much more for
doing the little you want for two displays.
I didn't, at first, since I thought that I knew what You where talking
about.
My /etc/X11/xorg.conf is now like this;
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Default Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Default Device"
Monitor "Default Monitor"
# DefaultDepth 16 # option that speeds older hardware
EndSection
Section "Device"
Driver "radeon"
Identifier "Default Device"
BusID "PCI:0:1:0:0"
#ChipID 0x68d9
Option "SwapbuffersWait" "off"
Option "ColorTiling" "on"
Option "ColorTiling2D" "on"
EndSection
After a 'X :1' /var/log/Xorg.1.log says that it's using that conf;
[ 83895.530] (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[ 83895.530] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
But the SwapbuffersWait is still enabled?

I'll have to dig further around in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d if there's
something over-riding stuff.
Sometimes I long for the slackware way of doing things, i.e. nothing. The
user does everything from scratch.
