...al minutes. I therefore would like to move to the Nouveau driver which has become the default for most Linux distributions anyway. I am not able to create a multi-monitor setup with current Nouveau drivers (from Ubuntu 14.04.1). xrandr -q only shows one monitor. http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MultiMonitorDesktop/ seems to refer to Xinerama which is no alternative to me (slow, no display effects). If I am not mistaken, the NVS450's chipset G98 is not supported according to the feature matrix http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/FeatureMatrix although certain other sources from the web state otherwise.

Hi, I'm planning to use a K2200 board with an Eizo monitor at 10 bits color depth together with a standard monitor on a debian sid system. Is it possible to have one monitor with 8, the other with 10 bit colors? Is it possible to configure such a setup choosing for each monitor a different resolution (dpi) such that a window would not change size when moved from one monitor to the other?

Using reverse prime with a ton of screens has had a questionable success rate. Using Xinerama Just Works (tm). B...

...not I might > be willing to donate > the cards for development if someone is interested. Admittedly I've never tried this, but I can't think of anything that would prevent you from doing this using the ZaphodHeads/Xinerama approach. Take a look at http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MultiMonitorDesktop/ -- pay special attention to the highly-unintuitive Screen setting inside of the Device section -- it appears to be the index of the crtc to be used on that device, not the overall screen number (so it just repeats 0/1/0/1/etc). Note that ZaphodHeads was broken for some number of revisions of xf86-...

...se-case, but perhaps another option is to have a single X server with multiple X screens. This can be done by enabling ZaphodHeads. This was a common way to get a mega-screen across multiple GPUs prior to output slaving being introduced, there's a guide here https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MultiMonitorDesktop/ . Lastly, note that no matter how many physical outputs there might be, Kepler+ only supports 4 CRTC's and earlier gens had 2. That puts a hw-imposed upper limit on the number of images that can be produced for these outputs. Cheers, -ilia On Mon, Jan 21, 2019 at 9:42 AM Janek Kozicki &l...

Hi, In my workflow I am using several separate xservers. One for work, another for research and so on. Each of them has a separate user account, and they all belong to the same (main) group called janek. I've been using nvidia for years, but about 2 years ago some super annoying bug appeared in nvidia, namely that switching between virtual terminals sporadically causes nvidia_modeset to

Dear nouveau developers and users! After many years of dealing with the blob in my kernel, I decided it was time to move to an open source solution. With one of my machines, equipped with 9500GT it went almost flawlessly. I had to patch kernel to get GLXVBlank option working (only because I used the latest and greatest 3.7-rc6), but that is all, and I'm very happy with the result. Nouveau on

...evs, The support for multiple xscreens (i.e. no xinerama, just separate :0.0 and :0.1 displays) in nouveau is broken. It would be great if someone could confirm this. It is easily done, by commenting the "xinerama" option from the xorg.conf file: https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MultiMonitorDesktop/ With the nvidia proprietary drivers separate xscreens work fine. Could the problem have something to do with the "modesetting" driver? Please check out below the xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log files (no Xorg.1.log present) Regards, Sampsa *** xorg.conf *** Section "ServerLayout&qu...
