MergedFB for i915G on ubuntu feisty

一直不知道i915的显卡还能使用MergedFB,原来在试验双显示器的时候,只用过Xinerama,但Xinerama使用后会禁止DRI,导致不能使用硬件加速以及AIGLX和XGL等三维效果。

主要的配置都在/etc/X11/xorg.conf的文件里。
关键的部分,一个是在Device节里:

Option “MergedFB” “true”

另外一个部分是在Screen节里:

SubSection “Display”
Depth 24
Virtual 1560 1024
EndSubSection

SubSection “Display”
Depth 24
Modes “1400×1050 1280×1024 1024×768”
EndSubSection

要添加一个Virtual的桌面大小定义。通常这个Virtual的桌面就是两个显示器的分辨率之和。
我的xorg.conf配置:

郁闷的是,No2048Limit参数不起作用,不知道什么原因,导致我最大只能使用2048的宽度,在两个屏幕中间会有重合的部分,不爽。
还有,我一开始看库里还有一个xserver-xorg-video-intel的包,这个的版本更新一些,就稀里糊涂地装上,导致后面很长时间都没搞定,还是最后恢复成xserver-xorg-video-i810才搞定,还没搞清楚这两个包有什么关系。

    把Virtual部分去掉,就可以超过2048的限制了,晕。
    刷新频率相关部分也都可以去掉,好像X可以自动监测了。

    log里的说明:
    (II) I810(0): Intel Pseudo-Xinerama extension initialized
    (II) I810(0): Pseudo-Xinerama: First (Screen 1) (1280,0)-(2303,1023)
    (II) I810(0): Pseudo-Xinerama: Second (Screen 0) (0,0)-(1279,1023)
    (WW) I810(0): Option “No2048Limit” is not used
    (WW) I810(0): Option “MergedNonRectangular” is not used

    终于搞清楚xserver-xorg-video-i810和xserver-xorg-video-intel的关系了。
    xserver-xorg-video-intel是i810的下一个版本,而且以后i810包就不存在了,以后只保留intel包了。
    i810是1.7.4版本,而intel是2.0版本。
    新版本中支持xrandr1.2,就是说可以进行动态配置了,但也带来了问题,原来的那种dual head方式都有问题了,而且新版本中不再支持mergedfb和xinerama了。

    由于硬件的限制,在低于965型号的显卡里,dri的支持最大不能超过2048×2048了。
