Following your hint I now created this:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "LVDS Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "VGA Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "S-Video Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
Option "Enable" "0"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DVI Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
Option "Enable" "0"
EndSection
... and attached these monitors to the Device:
Option "Monitor-LVDS" "LVDS Monitor"
Option "Monitor-VGA-0" "VGA Monitor"
Option "Monitor-S-video" "S-Video Monitor"
Option "Monitor-DVI-0" "DVI-0 Monitor"
... and verified in the Xorg.0.log that the assignment works properly:
(II) RADEON(0): Output VGA-0 using monitor section VGA Monitor
(II) RADEON(0): I2C bus "VGA_DDC" initialized.
(II) RADEON(0): Output DVI-0 has no monitor section
(II) RADEON(0): I2C bus "DVI_DDC" initialized.
(II) RADEON(0): DFP table revision: 4
(II) RADEON(0): Output LVDS using monitor section LVDS Monitor
(II) RADEON(0): Panel ID string: Samsung LTN150P1-L02
(II) RADEON(0): Panel Size from BIOS: 1400x1050
(II) RADEON(0): BIOS provided dividers will be used.
(II) RADEON(0): Output S-video using monitor section S-Video Monitor
(**) RADEON(0): Option "Enable" "0"
(II) RADEON(0): Default TV standard: NTSC
(II) RADEON(0): TV standards supported by chip: NTSC PAL NTSC-J
(II) RADEON(0): Port0:
Still it doesn't work and I get the embedded screen on startup. And still my
VGA output is silent. :-(
Any other hints?
