Hi,
I was wondering about state of Radeon SurroundView support in Fedora. I tried to get it working couple of months ago with 4670 + IGP 790GX and even got the X server start with 3 displays but neither Gnome nor KDE window manager knew how to handle it properly. Basically, no window could have been moved to the third display so apart of displaying blue background the third screen was kinda useless.
In addition, mouse pointer transitions between second and third display were curious to say the least. The cursor moved nicely from first to second to third display but when going back it showed up on the first screen...
I got to that point setting up hand crafted xorg.conf. Is there any work or testing being done on supporting multi-monitor setups (as in: more than 2 screens)? Perhaps I have gotten something wrong?
the 3rd screen is probably a second X screen which means you would need to send windows to DISPLAY=:0.1
I'm surprised gnome/kde don't start up a panel etc on it.
The geometry fixing is in progress so the mouse does the right thing at least I think ajax's work might fix it.
Dave.
