Hello,

I have some troubles to get xinerama work on my Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 Laptop. I have the 855GM graphic chip and I use i810 and the i915 (DRI) drivers. I have gentoo-linux and xorg-6.8.0-r2 installed....

I have tried several xorg.confs (the current one could be seen here: http://rafb.net/paste/results/tNji2o88.html) -> I also tried to enable xinerama and other PCI slots. 

lspci concerning graphics shows this:
 0000:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 3582 (rev 01)
0000:00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corp.: Unknown device 3582 (rev 01)

I have my videoseven monitor plugged at the VGA slot.

My question is:
Has anyone got xinerama work with this graphics chip?
If yes -> please could you give me a hint what might be wrong with my xorg.conf or other settings....
I also read (in one forum entry) that this chipset is not supported by xorg...?

If further information are needed don't hesitate to ask :)

thx in advance for your replies,
stefan walkner
