[Intel-gfx] Start a seperate driver instance for each screen.

[david.schueler at schueler.homeip.net]

Good evening.

I have a config question about a multi monitor setup:
I'm using the intel driver  xf86-video-intel 2.20.0 and want to start a single driver instance for each screen in xorg in order to use xinerama. Because at the moment every window which i maximize spans over the whole screen, i want ti use xinerama.

I have two device sections in my xorg.conf but only the first is used.

Her's my xorg.conf:

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "X.org Configured"
    Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
    Screen      1  "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"
    Screen      2  "Screen2" RightOf "Screen1"
    Screen      3  "Screen3" RightOf "Screen2"
