--- Comment #3 from Michel Dänzer michel@daenzer.net 2011-11-11 02:56:29 PST --- This may be because the primary device is the integrated Intel GPU, not the Radeon one. Possible solutions might be removing the Section "Device" for the radeon driver (letting it be auto-loaded via the ati driver) or adding a BusID stanza to it.

Added BusID in Device section for radeon gpu but again startx fails with following message : "Unable to find connected outputs - setting 1024x768 initial framebuffer" Its a Dell Inspiron Laptop.

I'm afraid this won't be supported for a long time, as it requires a lot of infrastructural work to happen first. In the meantime, you'll have to use the integrated GPU with the intel drivers.

"In SBIOS the switchable Graphics is set to Muxed instead of Muxless. The message, "Unable to find connected outputs - setting 1024x768 initial framebuffer" appears as warning and startx fails with segmentation fault."
