[Debian]Â Can't get triple monitor setup to work - vompatti - 04-07-2013
Hi,
I have HP EliteBook 8530p laptop and I'm using docking station which has VGA and DVI outputs, but I can't get all three monitors to work in that way (laptop's monitor and VGA, DVI).
I installed ati catalyst control center but when I have 2 displays enabled from there the third doesn't have anyother option than "Display disabled." and its selected by default. I tried to set resolutions lower but no effect.
Does this just mean that triple monitors isn't just supported or am I missing something here?
uname -a: Linux Nero 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.46-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux
xorg.conf: https://paste.xinu.at/ffqyy/ (generated by aticonfig --inital
Oh, and the GPU on the laptop is Mobility Radeion HD 3650 and I know that ADM/ATI sucks on linux but that is what I have here.

Google says that card doesn't support three screens, sorry.

Well, then I just have to use two screens. Thanks anyways :)
