Brice, I installed the xorg packages from unstable as you suggested. Actually I had to purge the old ones first as there was a weird problem with fonts (Display was fine but no chars showed anywhere)
Problem still exists. Display switching between X and console also still broken, but that's another bug :) I suspect the sync loss message may be a red herring as it only starts to show itself once I turn the second monitor off > (EE) intel(0): First SDVO output reported failure to sync I'll verify this behaviour tonight. The driver in unstable is just that... I had problems when I killed the Xserver to try other config file options. It hung the machine a couple of times, and once, though the machine stayed up the display had a "white out" that wouldn't go away (control was via an ssh session) I had to power cycle the machine to fix it. Is there any debug or extra logging I can switch on to get more info on whats going on?
