Not sure how relevant it is but just trying to spread the word that there are still some foibles in Intrepid: I have just fully configured dual screen via screen preferences in Intrepid on a Lenovo T60 with an Intel 945 but it would only work after running the following command: "xrandr --output

Thank you for reporting this bug and for your efforts to make Ubuntu better. As Xorg has improved this past year, an unfortunate side effect of these improvements is that it has rendered several design assumptions in displayconfig-gtk obsolete. So, starting with Hardy we are no longer putting dis

I believe that displayconfig-gtk has been deprecated with the extended desktop functionality being added to Intrepid. See Bug #201593 -- Gutsy Screen Prefs: Thinkpad X60 Secondary Screen grayed out https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153728 You received this bug notification because you are a member

I have the same problem on my IBM x61 laptop. The secondary screen is always disabled. I tried to use xrandrx to enable VGA output, but it is always disconnected even the monitor is connected. I can't switch to my external monitor. Sebastian you mentioned that this would be fixed in half a year (b

Ok I must check this, but my first impression was that xrandr/grandr deals mostly with rotation/reflection - and it's not what i need. But I must dig into this topic deeper, I think. Anyway I assume that the lack of support for intel driver to be configured via displayconfig-gtk is a bug, which

Grzegorz: take a look at the given link. Alternatively there is graphical user interface for the xrandr command line tool that is called grandr It will be fixed in an half year. But I hope to make packages for Gutsy available before. But we are talking in terms of monthes. -- Gutsy Screen Prefs:

Sorry. You cannot configure a second monitor using displayconfig-gtk and the intel driver. But you can with the xrandr tool: http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html As far as I know cloning will always resize. -- Gutsy Screen Prefs: Thinkpad X60 Secondary Screen grayed out https://bugs.

Sebastian: Could you please be a bit more explicit about "this doesn't work"? Does panning vs. resizing not work, or does dual monitor not work, or is it simply that displayconfig-gtk doesn't work with the intel driver? If the latter, can everything be achieved with the xrandr command line tool? It

This does not work with the intel driver. You would have to choose the i810 driver to get it done in displayconfig-gtk or use the command line tool xrandr. -- Gutsy Screen Prefs: Thinkpad X60 Secondary Screen grayed out https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153728 You received this bug notification bec
