Hi,
I am using opensuse 11.2 all default and experience a problem with X. First, my hardware (Hp 6005 Pro), from lspci:

As you can note, I have two video cards. One of then is activated in bios, using an option called surroundview. The other one is an external normal device. So, my try was to make a big desktop and use two monitors. So far so good.
After the system was installed, X started only on external device. Ok, xorg unconfigured.
So, I ran X -configure and get a xorg.conf.new.And here it is:

And, my X is:

So, when I try a simple X -config xorg.conf.new, I get black screen, I see the X process running about 100% in top and get this log in /var/log/Xorg.0.log: (It is to much long to post here… :(, but is ends like this)

I still tried run fedora 12 on this very same hardware. Got the same error. So I ran “yum update -y” and got lots of updates. After that, I X run perfectly on both monitors. So I guess there is a solution.
I tried to use ATI Driver, had to use some tutorials to make it work, and, after some time, got it. Unfortunately, when I use this driver, get the very same results: works on external card but never on both and freezes too.
So, anyone has this error? Recognaze it? Can help me?
Thanks
