           Summary: randr-1.2 breaks XV on second head in dual-head
           Product: xorg
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Driver/Radeon
        AssignedTo: xorg-driver-ati at lists.x.org
        ReportedBy: mblaesing at gmx.de
         QAContact: xorg-team at lists.x.org


I just checked out the new version of the radeo/ati driver from git. 

This is a notebook with the ATI9600 Chipset and I hat a setup running with
merged-framebuffer (3080x1050) with the internal TFT (1680x1050) and an
external CRT (1400x1050). Using Merged-Framebuffer I could put the XV Display
on either Display and got XV output.

After discovering, that I had to specify the Virtual Size of the Display to
3080x1050 to get my old setup with the randr-1.2 branch merged I now have the
display running again at 3080x1050. BUT I can only use XV on the first display
(the setting of the XV attribute is ignored).

When I switch to clone mode, I can choose which display should display the
video - in extended mode I only get a blue box (this is afaik the videokey
color).

I hope this can be fixed, as the dynamic config via xrandr is much nicer, than
the static setup via xorg.conf (I _really_ like this ;-).
