When I try to used any MergedFB configuration, my laptop screen goes crazy.  I can see from the screen and the Xorg logs that the second monitor is setup and the mergedfb is active, but the laptop screen is completely unreadable, even when I switch back to the VTs in text mode.  The screen is just a blur of colors.  This happens no matter what the mergedfb size is.  My system is a T41 (2373-7FU) with Radeon 7500 M7 LW.

Xinerama works just fine, but of course there is no direct rendering.

MergedFB messes up LCD screen

When I try to used any MergedFB configuration, my laptop screen goes crazy. I can see from the screen and the Xorg logs that the second monitor is setup and the mergedfb is active, but the laptop screen is completely unreadable, even when I switch back to the VTs in text mode. The screen is just a blur of colors. This happens no matter what the mergedfb size is. My system is a T41 (2373-7FU) with Radeon 7500 M7 LW.

Xinerama works just fine, but of course there is no direct rendering.
