Severity: normal
Hi,
I have an issue with 2 monitors connected on two DislpayPort output. The card
is an ATI "FirePro 2260". And only one display can works at a time.
$ lspci | grep VGA
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV620 [FirePro 2260]
My issue looks like this archived bug : http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=569970
> The symptoms are that only one display can be driven at a time.
It also talk about two DisplayPort connections.
So, the 2 monitor are connected and activated in clone mode :
$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 8192 x 8192
DisplayPort-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 408mm x 255mm
1680x1050 60.0 +
1600x1200 60.0
1400x1050 60.0
1280x1024 75.0 60.0*
1440x900 59.9
1280x960 60.0
1152x864 75.0
1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0
832x624 74.6
800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2
640x480 72.8 75.0 66.7 60.0
720x400 70.1
640x400 70.0
DisplayPort-1 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 380mm x 305mm
1280x1024 60.0*+ 75.0
1152x864 75.0
1024x768 75.1 60.0
800x600 75.0 60.3
640x480 75.0 60.0
720x400 70.1
But only one display works.
After that if I run for example :
xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --left-of DisplayPort-1
I have a black screen on the 2 monitors and I can't access to a terminal.
I noticed something else : When I turn off and on again the second monitor
(manually) an kernel error occurred :
[18515.140220] [drm:radeon_process_aux_ch] *ERROR* Buffer to small for return
answer 1 6
During some seconds, the main monitor get stranges color and lights intensity!
It seem to be the same problem that the bug #569970 but I am not sure.
Someone have an idea to solve this?
Tell me if you need other logs or informations.
Regards,
Thomas PIERSON
