Is it a X problem, or is it a radeonfb problem? Several pages I found on the web suggest that somebody got these working together. Where does the regression come from? What can I do to help? > does mergedfb work with a kernel without any framebuffer driver ? No, I just tried that. I only compiled in vga16, no vesafb, no radeonfb, but no change in X server behaviour. But one more interesting thing: I added Option "MergedXineramaCRT2IsScreen0" "true" to my Section "Device". This made kdm show its login window on my screens, so I could login to KDE. The KDE control center displays everything as it should be: Desktop 3360x1050, two displays with 1680x1050 each, first display at 0,0 and second display at 1680,1050. So obviously the X server "thinks" everything is configured as it should be. Unfortunately, that's not reality. I still got the same content on both screens.
