[ubuntu 12.10][fglrx] Configurazione driver con doppia scheda video

[marco.r]

Ho un portatile HP con APU A8-4500 (Radeon 7640 integrata) e scheda video esterna Radeon 7670.
Ubuntu 12.10 funziona correttamenet con i driver open source, ma le performance non sono esaltanti ma soprattutto la batteria dura veramente poco.
ho provato quindi con scarsa fortuna a configurare i driver fglrx.

00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Device 9903 (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 184a
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 54
	Memory at d0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
	I/O ports at 4000 [size=256]
	Memory at f0400000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256K]
	Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: fglrx_pci
	Kernel modules: fglrx_updates, radeon


01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Thames XT/GL [Radeon HD 7600M Series] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 184a
	Physical Slot: 0
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 55
	Memory at e0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
	Memory at f0300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K]
	I/O ports at 3000 [size=256]
	Expansion ROM at f0320000 [disabled] [size=128K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: fglrx_pci
	Kernel modules: fglrx_updates, radeon

Come si puo' vedere da lspci i due device hanno id 0:1:0 (la scheda interna) e 1:0:0 (la scheda esterna).
Senza alcun file di configurazione X non parte. Nel file di log vedo:

Che vuol dire ?
Ho provato sia i driver fglrx che fglrx-updates ma senza fortuna... ora provero' con quelli ufficiali di AMD... ma se qualcuno nel frattempo avesse qualche idea...

[marco.r]

Postilla... anche se ovviamenet avrei piacere di riuscire a fare andare entrambe le schede (in crossfire sarebbe il massimo), mi sarebbe sufficiente far andare correttamente una delle due.
Inoltre preciso che non ho installato tutta il DE di default di Ubuntu (io uso xmonad), potrebbe essere che manca qualche pacchetto ?
