With RandR 1.2-enabled drivers, monitor sections are tied to specific outputs
|
||||
of the video card.
|
||||
Each output has a name, and the server will look for a Monitor named
|
||||
.B \*qMonitor-outputname\*q
|
||||
for configuration of that output (for example,
|
||||
.B \*qMonitor-VGA\*q
|
||||
With RandR 1.2-enabled drivers, monitor sections may be tied to specific
|
||||
outputs of the video card. Using the name of the output defined by the video
|
||||
driver plus the identifier of a monitor section, one associates a monitor
|
||||
section with an output by adding an option to the Device section in the
|
||||
following format:
|
||||
|
||||
.B Option \*qMonitor-outputname\*q \*qmonitorsection\*q
|
||||
|
||||
(for example,
|
||||
.B Option \*qMonitor-VGA\*q \*qVGA monitor\*q
|
||||
for a VGA output)
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
In the absence of specific association of monitor sections to outputs, if a
|
||||
monitor section is present the server will associate it with an output to
|
||||
preserve compatibility for previous single-head configurations.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
Specifying video modes is optional because the server will use the DDC or other
|
||||
information provided by the monitor to automatically configure the list of
|
||||
modes available.
