Hi,
I'm on an hp elitebook 8530w with fc14 on it and I am trying the "nouveau" driver. It works for the laptop screen itself, but not for my external monitor (I could dual head with the proprietary driver). This is what xrandr says:
Code:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1200, maximum 8192 x 8192
LVDS-1 connected 1920x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 331mm x 207mm
1920x1200 60.0*+ 59.9
1920x1080 60.0
1600x1200 59.9
1680x1050 60.0
1400x1050 60.0
1280x1024 59.9
1280x960 59.9
1152x864 60.0
1024x768 59.9
800x600 59.9
640x480 59.4
720x400 59.6
640x400 60.0
640x350 59.8
DVI-D-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-D-2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
I noticed the 'puter started using nouveaufb as soon as I removed the nvidia proprietary driver packages, I don't know if that has anything to do with it - this also seems compiled in the kernel statically and I don't know how to disable it.
Anyone an idea?
