[Bug 591104] Re: wrong xinerama scroll/pan using two cards three monitors

 

@JamesRobinson: Yes, your "ZaphodHeads" trick worked for my three-monitor
set-up.  I now have Xinerama working correctly across all three monitors.
Here is the xorg.conf file:

Section "ServerLayout"
	Identifier   "Ian"
	Screen       "Screen Left" 0 0
	Screen       "Screen Middle"  RightOf "Screen Left"
	Screen       "Screen Right"  RightOf "Screen Middle"
	Option       "Xinerama"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen Left"
	Device     "Device Left"
	# this isn't absolutely necessary but it helps window placement
	SubSection "Display"
		Virtual 1600 1200
	EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen Middle"
	Device     "Device Middle"
	# this isn't absolutely necessary but it helps window placement
	SubSection "Display"
		Virtual 1600 1200
	EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen Right"
	Device     "Device Right"
	# this isn't absolutely necessary but it helps window placement
	SubSection "Display"
		Virtual 1600 1200
	EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier  "Device Left"
	Driver      "radeon"
	VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
	BoardName   "FireMV 2250"
	BusID       "PCI:4:0:0"
	Option	    "ZaphodHeads" "DVI-0"
	Screen	    0
EndSection

EndSection
