Last November I was able to configure X 4.3 on a T40 (257551U -Radeon M7 w/
32Mb) with Xinerama enabled so that the internal LCD and an external LCD
monitor formed a single contiguous desktop. This was using Mandrake kernel
2.4.22. There was a long thread on this in early November 2003.
I recently upgraded to the new version of Mandrake which runs kernel 2.6.3,
but still uses X 4.3. The same XF86Config-4 file no longer allows two
monitors...specifically, only the external monitor is used. There are no
hardware changes.
Any ideas what might have changed to cause the problem.
TIA
