z03 xorg.conf

My setup now works better.

You will see boot options in the X.log later.

It works with AND without Suroundview. For bot xinerama and xrandr.

This xinerama conf provides what I need (6 monitors unified in the same
"server"); it works perfectly when i comment the rotate line.

The bug still stand: when X crash, freese, or make KP, it does not say
anything, and, very often the log file is not even created (I have to mount /
with sync to get anything). Recent X ( since 1.5) do not report enough, do not
log enough. And when it crashes, it does not say always why.

Sometimes, it even does not take care about xorg.conf, and, does not either
even way it, or ignores sections (see the many Gentoo bugs I created last
year).

The minor bug in this is: when i use the rotate feature, and move the mouse
down (bottom of VISIBLE space) the rotated monitor, the visible spaces moves
right (what means, up when you think the absolute hardware coordinates). After
it have moved right, it will move up when pushing the cursor left; and down
again when moving cursor right. It will not move up/down when moving cursor
right/left of this monitor BEFORE going down. After moving down, the left black
space is lost forever. I think it's a virtual screen problem, but ... and this
is AGAIN the point of this bug ... nothing is mentioned about this in the logs:
log don't mention the monitor is rotated (except in the header where it lists
the conf commands), and, it does not mention anything about screens or monitor.
So, again, no way to track the issue. Because of lack of logs. it will be the
z05 log.
