I am attempting to get a dual head setup to work with my ATI x1650 pro and the radeonhd driver. My xorg.conf (below) is very simple (I have been working from http://wiki.x.org/wiki/radeonhd)
and while both monitors do come up they are clones of each other. I want the setup to be static so I have been attempting to get all of the config into the xorg.conf but attempting to run things like:
xrandr --output DVI-I_1 --right-of DVI-I_2
does not seem to do anything either.
Does anyone have a good resource for me to read through or some helpful hints on how to disable the cloning?
Thanks.
