If anyone has success with 3+ monitors of DIFFERENT resolutions please post up an nf.
#AMD RADEON HD 3450 DRIVER MONITORS NO LONGER WORKING DRIVERS#Perhaps I took the grown mans way out given my 6 hours messing with ATI crap drivers surely would be worth more than $45. I've not tried using my 3rd monitor with this card (DVI HDMI VGA ports) but will still be happy if I'm stuck with only 2 monitors in the end. In the end the next morning I went to Micro Center and bought a low profile NVIDIA 9400gt for $45 and was up and running with more speed and ease in literally 5 minutes. Virtual screens of appropriate dimensions were ignored. I then went the aticonfig route using -initial -dual-head enabling monitors, querying the 2 adapters with similar results.įinally I dug through the nf by hand and still had issues with xinerama and 3 screens of different resolutions. More often than not, screen orientation and resolution changes made in the GUI were reported completed but never reflected in the nf. Though I had my 3 monitors working, balancing the different resolutions was just too much for the ATI driver GUI to handle. The new drivers are just a polished turd when compared to NVIDIA. :( If any ATI linux driver devs read this, please understand that I respect what difficult work you do with I'd imagine limited resources.īut. I installed and got some half assed version of surround view to work. Maybe you should enhance my bugreport so that the ppl over there make notice of it! Have not tried to much as it sucks for me to turn off acpi. I got Hybrid-Crossfire enabled with the new 8.12 driver from ATI but had to acpi=off in grub so it does work. I don't know if HDMI audio work because I have no Soundsystem what would make use of it. #AMD RADEON HD 3450 DRIVER MONITORS NO LONGER WORKING PC#I can't test Gigabit as I have no other PC that would support Gigabit. The ethernet-card of my M3A-H/HDMI does work without any special configuration. I guess I can't be too mad because the latest ati drivers (8.12) break surroundview on vista as well due to not being able to disable Hybrid Crossfire. There is a bug report on the subject of the kernel panic issue out there Ubuntu 8.04 works with audio and ethernet.īoth Ubuntu versions crash with kernel panic when Surroundview is enabled in bios unless acpi=off is set as a kernel option and regardless of Surroundview I must specify the noapic parameter. Ubuntu 8.10 and the kernels with it have the atheros gigabit ethernet driver and ati hd audio busted in them so I can't upgrade. However this is the situation thus far.Ĩ.12 claims to support surroundview (what I'm interested in). I noticed this and have been playing around with it. I would like to test it but if I enable surroundview on my M3A-H/HDMI + HD 3470 all I get is a Kernel Panic (). The new fglrx driver 8.12 seems to support Hybrid-Crossfire. Here is the xorg.log error after using aticonfig to setup BOTH video cards. (-) fglrx(0): board vendor info: third party graphics adapter - NOT original ATI In short, has anyone had any luck getting a 780G integrated graphics motherboard to work with a discrete graphics card (ala 3450 HD) in "Surroundview" mode with more than 2 monitors? Without amdcccle SEGFAULTing? I think its because it was being confused by the new PCI graphics card (IGP) and associated address. Much dual screen fun was had.ģ) Rebooted and turned surroundview ON in BIOS. I got a usable screen but amdcccle SEGFAULTs therefore no multi screen config.Ģ) Turned surroundview OFF in the bios, played it safe and reinstalled Ubuntu and ATI Catalyst. Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-SH2 motherboard with onboard ATI 3200 HD graphics.ġ) Installed new graphics card, enabled BIOS surroundview, reinstalled Ubuntu, installed ATI Catalyst drivers. This evening I picked up a ATI 3450 HD with the hopes of putting a third LCD screen to work using the ATI surroundview BIOS option using my integrated 780G graphics as a discrete card paired up with said purchased card.
