Xorg Dual Head on Debian Linux lenny

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]


Hi,

I have two graphic cards in my PC (dual core) (onboard intel945 and  
Matrox Millenium p690 PCI).
I have successfully configured X to start on both cards. My window  
manager is pekw.

Everything's working but on high CPU load. That makes all applications  
running on one Screen really slow.

The situation is, that if I start the X only, the CPU load is quite ok  
(something about 1%). At the moment when I start pekwm the
load increases up to 100%.

Now I tested around:

1. X,  only one screen, no pekwm: works fine.
2. X , two screens, no pekwm: works fine.
3. X, two screens, pekwm only on display :0.0 : works fine.
4. X, two screens, pekwm on both displays: high load.

I tried the same with two X - Servers (displays :1.0 and :0.0) and
different window managers (twm, icewm2) and the result is the same.

I tried different cards for PCI (nvidia, ati) with different drivers:  
nv, nouveau, fglrx, nvidia.

Xorg Server Version is 1.4.0.90 Release 5.

(PCIIDMGA is replaced at startup with the real BUS ID)

Does anyone have an idea where I can tune the system?
