Hi,

I am trying to setup suse 10.1 with two monitors (in twin mode - as
one big screen). In xorg I have set Xinerama to true, and also setup 2
monitor, device and screen sections in xorg.conf.

When I run, the screens are just cloned. In xorg.0.log I get this warning:

(WW) I810(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum

..and also this one:

(WW) I810(0): Extended BIOS function 0x5f28 not supported.

Also display plane b is disabled for some reason:

(II) I810(0): Display plane A is enabled and connected to Pipe A.
(II) I810(0): Display plane B is disabled and connected to Pipe B.
(II) I810(0): Enabling plane A.
(II) I810(0): Display plane A is now enabled and connected to Pipe A.
(II) I810(0): Display plane B is now disabled and connected to Pipe B.
(II) I810(0): PIPEACONF is 0x80000000
(II) I810(0): PIPEBCONF is 0x80000000

I wonder if someone know what the reason could be for this, and how I
can get twin mode to work. I am using SuSE 10.1 with xorg 6.9.0.
Kernel version: 2.6.16.13-4. The graphics card is intel 945G, using
the i810 driver.


Thanks in advance,

Rohnny
