    Hey folks!
    Hope you can help me with that problem.
    I installed Ubuntu-Linux on my second harddrive and installed the driver for my videocard (ATI Radeon HD 5570) from AMD/ATI itself. Now i have the problem that I've got 2 monitors working. The first one is setup with 1440 x 900 and the other one is working on 1280 x 1024. Now everytime I try to enable the second monitor, it gives me the error:
    "The chosen configuration could not be set. Allowed position/size for CRTC >>148<< is above the allowed limit: Position=(1440,43), size=(1024,768), Maximum=(1792,1792)"
    But arranged the monitors to be next to each other, so the second one is right and attached to the first one!
    Here are the outputs of xrandr:
    Code:
    Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1792 x 900, maximum 1792 x 1792

    And the output of glxinfo -l | grep MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE:
    Code:
    GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE = 16384
    Hope you guys got an idea...!

    Greetz!
