This is more of a question than an answer. (1) Have you changed |
| 35 |
kernels? (2) Have you tried making your BusID conform to what xorg's |
| 36 |
log reports finding? It sees them both, but doesn't like how you are |
| 37 |
identifying them. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Two simple experiments: (1) Comment out the BusID lines and see what |
| 40 |
xorg says; use SBUS:fb0 for both busid lines, since xorg is seeing two |
| 41 |
devices at fb0. |
| 42 |

I realize this is not much of a response, but it might give you a couple |
| 44 |
ideas until someone who knows more than I do answers, too. |
