Xorg log, randr disabled, only laptop digital panel

When enabling RandR12 on my laptop the screen is black, though it is backlit.
I can switch to VT and back to Xserver without any problem.

If I attach a crt monitor, both displays don't work. The analog monitor
complaints about out of range frequency, while the lvds is white (instead of
black).
Again, I have no problem in switching to VT.

My laptop has an nForce chipset.

Your PLL table version 0x11 is not known yet. This is causing problems.

Try again, the PLL table issue should now be fixed.

Ok, now it works with only laptop panel attached. It's a bit slow with redraw
operations, but I'm on xserver 1.3 (and not able to update for a bit).

If I attach a crt monitor before starting X, I get only the external monitor
working, the lvds is on and white, with coloured stripes.
I've updated my Xorg.conf to have a virtual size of 2048x768 and tried to put
the lvds on the right of my crt but with no luck (lvds stays white but windows
move over the right of the crt).
Note that I have only one Monitor section, but as far as I know that should not
matter.

BTW, VT switch is broken (I just see the white screen on my laptop).

Disable a quirk that may have adverse effects.

Please try this patch.

Just tested with two VGA monitors, one lcd and one crt; your patch is working
perfectly. I'm not sure which adverse effects you where thinking about, but
I've seen none.

For me it's fixed.

I disabled the quirk in the code, please test it again.

I hope noone complains, and i can remove it altogether :-)

Updated to master today and everything seems ok. I hope the quirk doesn't
affect anyone else! :)

On a side note: I've put lvds right-of vga; when I disconnect the cable, all
the windows on vga don't migrate automatically to lvds (that's a problem for
example if I have gnome menu bars on vga, so I'm blind and can't launch even a
console). Is that intended?

The system is unaware that you pulled out the cable, and you will need to rerun
xrandr --auto or some other program needs to give it a kick.

I don't think there is a pretty way to deal with this, certainly not for vga.

Ok, thanks. However it has nothing to do with the bug reported here.
Closing fixed.
