Hello !
Another question : I'm now working with the pure:dyne (I think you know
it). I'd
like to display the Gem window in fullscreen on an external monitor/videoprojector. I manage to get an « extended desktop » (with
Xinerama)
but not to display the gemwin on the external monitor : with [fullscreen
1( it
is always displayed on my laptop, and with [fullscreen 0( the video of
the Gem
window is no more rendered when i pass it on the external screen. I tried
lots
of settings in my xorg.conf, but it never worked more than once (if it
works
one time, it doesn't anymore when i restart X). I think Gem refers to the Screen 0 to choose where it is displayed, but even if i define the
external
screen as the Screen 0, it doesn't work, the « display screen » or the « rendering buffer » remains on my laptop. My graphic card is a Intel 855
GME, so
i'm using i810 as driver. Has anyone got the same problem ?
this should be a problem with your gfx card (though i have no experience with your specific model; probably frank can help you here)

there is nothing you can do about this, but: a) try to mirror the output of the built-in screen to the external screen. this way you have less possibilities to interact with your patch (since your primary display is occupied by the fullscreen gem window), but at least you might get output.
Well, how to set up the PIPEs on Intel chips still is a mystery to me as well, so I'm avoiding it. I also don't use Xinerama, but instead just rely on your solution a) which is the default setup anyways for xorg AFAIK. My laptop has a special key which cyccle between disabled/enabled builtin screen/VGA output like (builtin on, vga off), (b off, vga on) and (b on, vga on). Normally I then get the same image on both screens and all is well (unless a Ben-Q beamer is connected to VGA, as these seem to dislike my laptop.)

Thanks IOhannes and Frank !
So, if i understand (as my french-english is quite bad), there's no solution to get the gemwin on the external screen and the patch on the laptop screen, with that type of card. I had managed to display "clone" and "extended" screen. But under windows 2K (glups !) i can get an extended desktop and the video is rendered (for example, with VLC player) on the external screen. Maybe this because this is not OpenGL. In this case, couldn't it exist a trick to render it as non-3D (wich doesn't interest me, i'm doing 2D with Gem, because i know it better) or something like passing it from Gem to pdp ? If I remember well the workshop i did, there's something like gem_to_pdp... Or should I use pdp in case of Gem ?
About the Intel Graphics, I heard that Intel had just made their drivers more open, dont't they ? Do you think, there will be more support for these cards later with linux ?
However, now, I'll try with my girlfriend laptop ; i hope her graphic card is different !
Thanks once more
