xpress 200m (rc410) and Mobility 7500 (M7) KMS+DRI2 problems with two monitors

[Andres Cimmarusti]

Hi, 

Before filing a bug report I decided to post this here first, since I'm not sure whose fault is it.

I'm running Debian Squeeze. Output to another monitor or projector was working fine with version 6.12.4 of the radeon driver in user modesetting. Got version 6.12.191 from experimental and set up KMS+DRI2 to see if I could suspend/hibernate, but this failed. Furthermore when hooking up my laptop (with rc410) to a projector, my laptop screen (LVDS) when blank. Output was completely routed to the projector even though both should have come on as stated by this: 

[ 6933.559414] [drm] LVDS-11: set mode 800x600 23
[ 6933.620246] [drm] TV-9: set mode 800x600 27

On top of this issue, my touchpad started acting abnormally. It would skip and get non-responsive for several seconds. In dmesg I found this:

With the other laptop using Mobility 7500 (M7), I had similar issues but with a TV.

In both cases reverting to user modesetting and the older radeon module fixed the problem

So I don't really know if this is a kernel issue, a radeon issue or a xserver issue...

Thanks

Andres
