ATI drivers, dual heads not working
I'm a little flustered about this. I'm running Gutsy 7.10, my video card is a Radeon X300 (PCIE).I've been trying for the last two days to set up my dual monitors. I've read many guides to help get an idea, most helpful was the link below
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=301941
So far I've amounted to getting nowhere fast. I've tried fresh install, I get my drivers installed fine
Code:
jgallios@jgallios-desktop:~$ fglrxinfo -display :0
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Radeon X300/X550/X1050 Series
OpenGL version string: 2.1.7412 Release
My problem is when i try to run sudo aticonfig --query-monitor I get this
Code:
jgallios@jgallios-desktop:~$ sudo aticonfig --query-monitor
Connected monitors: none
Enabled monitors: none
Anyone have any idea to fix this? I'm tired of staring at a clone screens :(
