Pi 4 dual Monitor

[Rich]

Hi Juanito
The last dmesg he posted shows  vc4  can't find  kernel/drivers/media/cec/cec.ko.

[Rabie]

Reboot means power-off and power-on again.

Once you have rebooted to the console prompt, issue the command “tce-load -i Xorg-3d”. This will have the effect of loading the graphics-KERNEL module , which, if you entered the dtoverlay line mentioned previously into config.txt, will blank the screen briefly.

Code: [Select]

$ tce-load -i Xorg-3d
Xorg-3d.tcz: OK
its just says that the extension was loaded and the Screen didn't blank. Maybe because the extension "graphics-5.10.16-piCore-v7l.tcz" is listed in onboot.lst ?

[Juanito]

graphics-5.10.16-piCore-v7l was missing a driver - I added it.

Please update graphics-5.10.16-piCore-v7l, reboot and check "dmesg | tail -20" to verfiy that the vc4 driver loads.

wow that driver did it, now both Screens works (See Attachments)

so now i need to let both Screens work with xrandr:

Code: [Select]

$ xrandr
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      0.00*

could you show me the way ?

Edit: while booting the second Screen stucks like i said before on the rainbow Screen and then after it finished booting the second Screen works fine!
can i let the second Screen shows what the first Screen shows while booting ?

[Juanito]

As per your Xorg.0.log, you are still using the fbturbo driver - I don't know if that effects xrandr, but it is blocking 3d acceleration.

how do i uninstall it ?

[Juanito]

You could delete it from Xorg.tcz.dep - check also that you don't have it in onboot.lst

oh yes you are right! 
After i remove the Driver and restarted X server i am getting with xrandr the right information.

Code: [Select]

sudo rm /usr/local/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/fbturbo.conf
sudo rm /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/fbturbo_drv.so

OMG it works:

Thank you very very much for your help!   

there is only on thing left:

while booting the second Screen stucks like i said before on the rainbow Screen and then after it finished booting the second Screen works fine!
can i let the second Screen shows what the first Screen shows while booting ?

[Juanito]

I suspect that you will only see data on one screen during boot - I don't know this for sure, you'll have to google or search/post a question on the raspberrypi forums to find out..

Hi Juanito,

after all the freerdp didn't work with the "/Multimon:force" option

it says that the multi monitor support was not advertised by server, but it actually works with TinyCore with the same freerdp version.

[Rabie]

there is a thing i found out maybe effect this option /multimon

when i install freerdp.tcz and try to start it, it asks for the libnettle.so.7

Code: [Select]

xfreerdp: error while loading shared libraries: libnettle.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
and when installing nettle.tcz
i get the latest version:

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/lib/libnettle.a
/usr/local/lib/libnettle.so.8.1
/usr/local/lib/libnettle.so.8
/usr/local/lib/libnettle.so

so i downloaded the old one from V11.x/armv7
is that why the freerdp isn't working with /multimon ?

Did you try it (use the "sudo ldconfig" command first)?
