Bug 215459 – x11-drivers/xf86-video-radeonhd - Radeon X1650 dual monitor incorrect resolution

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jonathan Steel 2008-03-30 17:45:10 UTC]

I have a readeon X1650 graphics card and two of the exact same monitors. The monitor on the left is setup exactly how I want it, but the one on the right is not being set to the same resolution for some reason. I end up with a portion of my desktop missing between the two screens and the one of the right looks really really bad.
