xorg.conf, what worked on fc6
Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachment using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

generated (ish) xorg
xorg from the 'autogenerated' run. I started a new Xorg and went through the
GUI utilities to add the second head. That doesn't work, so I implemented the
least amount of changes to get both displays up. The problem still exists (and
is brought about by xrandr also)

log
from the run with the 'generated' file, this problem is still here. And something happened that was telling: A simple run of xrandr in either case creates the invisible barrier. I know the xrandr subsystem changed from fc6 -> f7 - this is likely to be a side effect... I also ran into an invisible barrier when setting up another dual-head interface with the new intel driver. I start with the laptop output, and when I run: xrandr --output VGA --mode 1600x1200 --left-of LVDS it gives me the correct layout and resolution, but binds the cursor to an 1024x768 square within the 1600x1200 and doesn't allow any cursor movement to the laptop panel. Also I am upping this bug to high as it's affecting xrandr with both heterogeneously (i810->mga) and homogeneously (intel). I will probably file this with Xorg also. This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 7 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on June 13, 2008. Fedora 7 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
