The cards listed in the docs are no longer readily available (that is -
boards such as the Radeon 9000 etc. - maybe these chipsets are found on
other boards, I don’t know)
Supported chipsets
a… RADEON
b… RADEON VE
c… RADEON 7500
d… RADEON 8500
e… RADEON 9000
f… RADEON 9700
g… RADEON MOBILITY M6
h… RADEON MOBILITY M7
I had assumed that all AGP/PCI Radeon cards would work (e.g. a Radeon 9200
would be based on the 9000 chipset). I am able to get a Radeon 7000 VE (AGP)
working in dual head mode.
I bought a Radeon 9200SE AGP expecting it to work. But it doesn’t. Both
displays show the region for the 1st display.
Which currently available Radeons are known to work in dual head mode? I’d
prefer to buy the one with the longest product life left (i.e. the latest
board).
Thanks!
Nick
