2 monitor radeon xorg.conf
So, I spent a few minutes today seeing how bare-bones I could get my xorg.conf. My configuration is 2 23-inch Acer monitors, which are side-by-side using a Radeon HD4850 video card. I'm using gentoo.
make.conf : VIDEO_CARDS="radeon".
Also, I've got one big desktop from the 2 monitors. Here's the config.
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DVI-0"
# Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DVI-1"
# Option "DPMS"
Option "RightOf" "DVI-0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Virtual 3840 1080
EndSubSection
EndSection
I also verified that DRI is in fact being used, and EXA 2D driver is being used. Everything looks good so far.
