Thank you Tiago for responding,
Does this mean the only way to get an multi-card system working with
newer software is with either the old pci vga only cards or with NON
randr 1.2 compliant drivers like the close source nvidia drivers. I have
a test system here with four radeonhd based devices and I can only get
the first device to work all other devices do not work!
btw. I did try the mdm0.0.3-livecd.iso but it does not work on my system
it keeps trowing messages that the user is not authoritative or
something like that.
Thanks in advance,
Jelle
