From my research, it seems to be a known problem with OpenCL and Xinerama.  This is a 4 monitor workstation, and I need to have Xinerama switched on.

Most of the info I have found is old.  Are there any fixes?

Think you need to plug the second 7900 card with a dvi-dummy in order to enable it. Can you see the second card in amdcccle?

If you dont see the second card in amdcccle you could try:

Code:

sudo aticonfig --adapter=all --initial

This updates the X server settings file.

thanks.

I have four monitors plugged in, and i already tried recreating the xorg config.

i more or less followed this guide to get it working:

skip the driver part if you know your drivers are new enough.

For now, I have switched Xinerama off and switched to using RandR.  This is not ideal, but better than keeping one gpu idle.
