Even though the Xorg.0.log tells me about two screens: [ 711.534] (**) ServerLayout "X.org Configured" [ 711.534] (**) |-->Screen "Screen0" (0) [ 711.534] (**) | |-->Monitor "Monitor0" [ 711.534] (**) | |-->Device "Card0" [ 711.534] (**) |-->Screen "Screen1" (1) [ 711.534] (**) | |-->Monitor "Monitor1" [ 711.534] (**) | |-->Device "Card1" [ 711.534] (**) |-->Input Device "Mouse0" [ 711.534] (**) |-->Input Device "Keyboard0" planetnew X11 # DISPLAY=:0 xdpyinfo | grep -i screen MIT-SCREEN-SAVER default screen number: 0 number of screens: 1 screen #0: On my main system (AMD Phenom + AMD 5750) I got this Multi-Head setup working just fine: jogi@planetzork ~ $ DISPLAY=:0 xdpyinfo | grep -i screen MIT-SCREEN-SAVER default screen number: 0 number of screens: 2 screen #0: screen #1: Find my current xorg.conf attached. Is there a way I can get the intel driver to open two screens? Or even better a solution like this one from Dave Arlie for the intel driver: http://airlied.livejournal.com/72187.html (two X servers one graphics card) Many thanks in advance! Best regards, Jogi
