We have this arrangement on of the boards we manufacture but we're getting no picture out of the monitor. Bugzilla bug 15766 (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15766">https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15766</a>) is logged against this. We're using GM965 mobile embedded chipset but the board is not a lap-top and can support two DVI, two VGA or VGA+DVI (using various different build configurations). We have a customer who needs 2xVGA and has an earlier solution with this capability. Briefly: PipeA -> VGA -> ViewSonic 1940w monitor (picture is fine) PipeB -> SDVO-B -> Chrontel 7317A -> Dell FP193c (no picture). OS is Ubuntu 8.04 (i386) + X.org 1.4.0.99 and Intel driver 2.3.1 (manually compiled). Same results with other combinations including Ubuntu 7.10, Fedora Core 7, X.org v1.3.0.0 and Intel_drv.so v2.1.1 through v2.2.1. Interesting thing about the SDVO-VGA monitor situation is that VGA sync and colour signals from the monitor are consistent with the picture being sent (e.g. if I use xsetroot -solid); the monitor also things something is happening because the power LED goes from amber to green. Normally I'd think it'd left power saving mode but if I press the monitor menu button then the monitor pops up a message saying it IS in power saving mode and the LED then goes amber. This happens if I swap the monitors around or use other ones - the result is always the same. If I leave X for the text console then a picture does appear on the second monitor (a clone of the text mode image on the main VGA channel). I return to X and the picture disappears (screen goes blank) but LED is green again. I am running out of ideas on this, particularly since I am no expert on this kind of thing. Can anyone suggest anything I can try. I am able to compile and configure a working Intel driver. Xorg.conf, Xorg.0.log files can be found in the bugzilla entry for this issue (see above).
