           Summary: Unable to configure ATI x1200 in a dual-head
                    configuration
           Product: xorg
           Version: 7.5
          Platform: x86 (IA32)

         Component: Driver/Radeon

Hello,

I have a Wyse R90LЕW thin client, with an onboard ATI x1200 (RS690) dual-head
capable card, and add-on PCIe ATI X300 dial-head capable card. I am unable to
configure one receptacle on the onboard card. Could you please help? My goal is
to have 4 Xserver screens, 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 due to an application
requirements (Spice protocol client).

Onboard card has 2 different DVI connectors (1 and 2), plese see a picture
(rs690connectors.jpg)
When I first turn on the system and load ubuntu 10.4 (2.6.32-21-generic), over
PXE it displays console output on both DVI(0) and DVI(1) in parallel.

Since I know that all previous version of the ATI driver fail in some manner,
I'll get the latest one out of the git repo and install it.

# git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati
# ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
# make install
# initctl gdm start

When using xorg.conf_2outof4 configuration file, X server starts, but turns
only monitors that are connected to the add-on card 
[onboard card: DVI(0) - No Signal, DVI(1) - No Signal; add-on: DVI(0) - on,
DVI(1) - on]
Please additionally see xorg.conf_2outof4, Xorg.0.log2of4, xrandr2of4.txt 

When the BusID is changed from "PCI:1:5:0" to "PCI:99:99:0" for Screen 1 of
onboard card (xorg.conf_3outof4), it effectively enables the 3rd monitor
[onboard card: DVI(0) - on, DVI(1) - blank; add-on: DVI(0) - on, DVI(1) - on].
Please additionally see xorg.conf_3outof4 and Xorg.0.log3of4, xrandr3of4.txt

Thank you in advance.
Roman
