WYSE V50LE dual screen setup

[jqcore]

I have been trying to setup dual screen on this puppy and was not able to.

I know it works because the WYSE Linux OS works with dual screen.

I tried using xf86-video-openchrome, it loads and X starts but all I get is a black screen on the second screen.

Here is the output of lspci:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. CN700/P4M800 Pro/P4M800 CE/VN800 [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01)

Here is the output of lsmod: (I cant see openchrome here)

Here is the output of lsmod: (I cant see openchrome here)

As expected, it's a userland driver and according to your Xorg.0.log gets loaded.

However:

Code: [Select]

[drm] failed to load kernel module "via"
Do you have graphics-3.0.21-tinycore.tcz loaded?

[jqcore]

Yes, I just removed it and tried again  with the same result.

[curaga]

What happens if you try to set it up dynamically, with xrandr commands?

[jqcore]

I get below when running xrandr -q

xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1280 x 1024, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm
     1280x1024 75.0*

[jqcore]

I read from openchrome and unichrome site that dual head is not supported. 

I tried compiling the driver from VIA's site but getting Fatal error: xf86Resources.h No such file or directory,
Read it somewhere that this has been removed in version xorg 1.7.

I think using Xorg-7.4.tcz should work but I do'nt know how to proceed because i do not see Xorg-7.4-dev.tcz..

Can anyone share how to build (Xorg-7.4-dev / lib /bin)? so I can try compiling VIA's official driver...

Thanks

Hi jqcore
Xorg-7.4-dev.tcz is available in the 3.x repository and is the same version as Xorg-7.4.tcz in the 4.x repository.

[Rich]

Hi jqcore
By the way, Xorg-7.4-dev.tcz does contain xf86Resources.h.

[jqcore]

where can I download Xorg-7.4-dev.tcz, cant seem to find it.

Thanks

[Rich]

Hi jqcore
Try:

Code: [Select]

wget http://tinycorelinux.net/3.x/tcz/Xorg-7.4-dev.tczYou might also need the dependency file:

Code: [Select]

wget http://tinycorelinux.net/3.x/tcz/Xorg-7.4-dev.tcz.dep

[jqcore]

Now I get panoramiXproto.h no such file or directory, the file is there when I search it..

I'm lost..

Thanks

Hi jqcore
It might be helpful if you paste the error message and some of the lines preceding it in your next post. Use the mouse

Hi jqcore
I don't see anything wrong, but I'm no expert. What does the include line for  panoramiXproto.h  look like in the
via_bios.h  file on line 32?
