Re: Bug#226973: xserver-xfree86: [glint] second card at wrong resolution

From: Clint Adams <hidden>

This will not help, X things everything is ok, it is just the graphic
card output which is problematic. No way to find it in the log, you have
to look at the way the graphic output registers are programmed. 

Look at the pm2_dac.c stuff.
Well, I haven't gotten as far as dumping the registers, but I came
across Permedia2VPreInit in pm2v_dac.c, and forced it to call
Permedia2VPreInitSecondary(pScrn) unconditionally.

I also changed a few things seemingly related to linux-kernel-headers to
get the thing to compile, and it improved the situation.  Now there is a
mild amount of distortion and flicker.  The really bad part is that if I
drag an open window, it will turn into a block of noise, somewhat
related to the colors of the root window.  Also, X now detects 8 megs of
memory on that card.
