I want a triple monitor setup to work correctly.
My setup is as follows:
- Linux Mint 16 x64
- Intel Core i5-2500k
- GeForce GTX 560 Ti Cu II
- A monitor on the far right connected to the motherboard (integrated graphics on the i5)
- A central monitor connected to the graphics card
- A monitor on the far left connected to the graphics card
I'm using the following xorg.config
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "DefaultServerLayout" "PrimaryLayout"
Option "Xinerama" "off"
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "glx"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "auto"
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel HD Graphics 3000"
Driver "intel"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Geforce GTX 560 Ti"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
Screen 0
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "AOC"
Option "Primary" "true"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Samsung"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "ViewSonic"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Samsung"
Device "Intel HD Graphics 3000"
Monitor "Samsung"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "AOC"
Device "Geforce GTX 560 Ti"
Monitor "AOC"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "ViewSonic"
Device "Geforce GTX 560 Ti"
Monitor "ViewSonic"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "PrimaryLayout"
Screen "AOC" 0 0
Screen "ViewSonic" LeftOf "AOC"
Screen "Samsung" RightOf "AOC"
InputDevice "Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse" "CorePointer"
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "SingleLayout"
Screen "AOC" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse" "CorePointer"
EndSection
Which has the following effect:
- The far right monitor doesn't work
- The central and left monitors work as expected
A little bit more info:
- I'm on kernel
3.11.0-12-generic
- I'm using nvidia proprietary driver version
331.67
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings
for X server configuration?GeForce GTX 560 Ti Cu II
is nVidia card, isn't it?
