Hi all, I'm trying to set up a xinerama arrangement over two graphics cards (Intel + Radeon), taking advantage of xrandr 1.4's features which (I understand, perhaps mistakenly, to) support this configuration. I'm running xorg server 1.13.4 on Gentoo. It might be useful for you to know in addition that I'm running a barebones KDE 3.5.10 desktop on it.
If I do --listproviders, I get both cards listed: # xrandr --listproviders Providers: number : 2 Provider 0: id: 0x87 cap: 0xb, Source Output, Sink Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 3 outputs: 3 associated providers: 0 name:Intel Provider 1: id: 0x57 cap: 0xd, Source Output, Source Offload, Sink Offload crtcs: 6 outputs: 2 associated providers: 0 name:radeon However no use of --setprovideroutputsource or --setprovideroffloadsink (with arguments "0 1" or "1 0") will do what I want. Am I completely misunderstanding this? One monitor is connected to VGA output of integrated Intel GPU, and the other to DVI output of Radeon (HD 7570) PCI card. I think kernel stuff is set up properly: # lsmod | grep radeon radeon 858404 1 cfbfillrect 3714 2 i915,radeon cfbimgblt 2039 2 i915,radeon ttm 58739 1 radeon cfbcopyarea 3350 2 i915,radeon drm_kms_helper 26569 2 i915,radeon fb 33637 6 i915,fbcon,drm_kms_helper,radeon,softcursor,bitblit backlight 4248 2 video,radeon Please document this functionality more clearly! Any help with this will be much appreciated. I can try to end-run the problem by asking my boss to buy me an HDMI-capable monitor, to plug into the second port of Intel card, but I've already got the Radeon, and I'd rather try to figure this out before throwing money at it :-) Thx.
