- What is the total resolution of all monitors you have attached? - What is the output of 'glxinfo | grep renderer' - Can you attach the output of dmesg and /var/log/Xorg.0.log' as attachments? I have the identical problem. Disconnecting one of my two monitors fixes the problem, although I'd like to use both. Should I also include the info requested above? Created attachment 503219 [details]
Xorg.0.log
Total resolution = 1024x768 and 1280x1024 glxinfo | grep renderer = OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on ATI RV370 Same problem here, with a couple of Dell 19" screens. Total desktop size is (2x1600)x1200. Running on an up-to-date F15 with Radeon X600 graphics. Should version be updated to 15? Or should a new bug be filed? What other info is needed to move this bug along? Total resolution is too big, your gpu can't do 3d above 2560x2560 *** Bug 707410 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Could we reopen this? (1280*1024+1024*768) < 2560*2560 This gpu *should* be able to handle this resolution ... Also, with respect to Comment 5, is the limit based on total number of pixels or the maximum resolution in either dimension? Maximum resolution in either dimension (1280*1024+1024*768) might fails because Xserver stills try to allocate its screen buffer using the native edid resolution supplied by your monitor. Try Virtual "2304 1024" in your xorg.conf Ok i misread the bug this is why we want 1 person -> 1 bug for gpu It should work with 1280*1024+1024*768 Adding Virtual "2304 1024" fixes this but I still think this should be re-opened as a bug. In my view, Xserver should allocate its screen buffer based on the user-specified resolution - not the maximum possible by the monitor. There is no good answer to that kind of configuration. Anytime we change something we make a bunch of user unhappy while making other happy. |
