Before I got the Radeon, I was using indirect rendering on a dualhead system. I can get dualhead working with the Radeon with both Xinerama on and off, but with the Xinerama off, DRI is still disabled by X. I read somewhere that it was possible to get direct rendering in a multihead configuration by running 2 separate X servers? Maybe Eric Anholt can shed some light on this? Thanks, pete -- Peter C.
