Hi PTB community and team, I am trying to set up psychtoolbox to generate the 12bit precision stimuli for detecting the detection threshold. in order to get the 12bit precision, our lab follow the Document on Psychtoolbox to set up our system.
HW/SW Info:
Motherboard: asus prime b760m-a
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-14700KF
GPU: AMD® Radeon pro w7600
OS: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS
Matlab: R2024b
and we download the amdgpudriver from the https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/linux-drivers.html
we install the Psychtoolbox for Matlab from NeuroDebian

we have three screens, one for control (DP-3), two for display stimulus (DP-1 is a digital projector and DP-4 is a LCD panel);
Issue Is Here
so we follow the Screen instruction using the XOrgConfCreator
for creating a 3-screens config file. then we XOrgConfSelector
the 90-ptbconfig_3_xscreens_3_outputs_amd.conf. After we reboot the machine, only the 0-screen for control has signal; the other two have no signal and show a black screen, and also in the xrandr
we can’t see any information about the other two screen. We further test with two screens only (DP-1 and DP-3), and selecting a corresponding built up 90-ptbconfig_2_xscreens_2_outputs_amd.conf, the same situation still occur. Sometimes it may even lead to computer boot up failure.
Only when we XOrgConfSelector
to a config file build by selecting
Do you want single or multiple display set up: single (with three screens connected)
then the other two have signal and can be detected. No errors reported throughout our setting.
Has anyone had a similar situation and any ideas on how to fix it?
Any replies are greatly appreciated!
