Situation:
My sig rig has a GTX 460 installed in the primary slot, which is dying slowly (it cuts out all video output for 15s at a time) which is making my secondary display (a tv) useless. I more recently installed a GTX 670 in place of the second 460, and am using that to drive my primary display. Since the old 460 is dying, I've decided to dedicate it to folding alone via XEN VGA passthru instead of wrapper (which works fine, since it doesn't need a video output to work as a VM. (this also gets it more WUs as this allows the v7 client to run.)
Anyways, I moved the cable for my TV from the mini-hdmi port on my 460 to the full HDMI port on my gtx 670, and restarted the X display server to discover: Nothing is the same as it was before.
My 1920x1080 TV has taken over as the primary display - displaying a scaled 2560x1440 image - and my 2560x1440 Yamakasi displays nothing.
Okay, no big deal, just some X11 confoolery to be done. Well, now I have video displaying on both monitors, at proper resolutions, but no matter what I do, my TV is the primary display...
Here is the Original xorg.conf, prior to moving things to the 670 from the 460:
Code:
Here is the current xorg.conf, which results in good video, but with the wrong data on each display:
Code:
Swapping the Monitor, device, and screen lines results in NO CHANGE. Period. Nada, Zilch, nothing. I'm tearing my hair out over this now and I can't seem to figure it out. The most I can get it to do, is revert to no video on the Yamakasi, and incorrect video scaled back on the TV. Notice that I have specified specific EDID's to specific displays, the Shimian provides an "invalid" EDID.
Any ideas on what to try? This is getting pretty old, I've restarted X11 at least a hundred times now testing this.
