I think this bug has been fixed in Gutsy with the new Intel driver. You can use xrandr for configuring your external monitor (clone, extend, disable and so on). The problem that the screen switch key doesn't work with xrandr is another bug report e.g. Bug #157596. Marking as fixed. Feel free to o

I have the same problem with gutsy that Shot describes. I have gone back to the i810 module. To be more specific, /proc/acpi/ibm/video reacts properly to Fn-F7. But the video (xorg) just doesn't care. So when I boot, my laptop monitor is blank (as expected) all the way up until x starts. I don't k

For me (current Gutsy) the intel driver turns on both monitors and Fn+F7 still doesn’t work. Unfortunately, if the external monitor has bigger resolution (1280×1024 vs. internal’s 1024×768), both monitors are set to the bigger one, the internal monitor then shows only part of the viewport, *and* I

I doubt the patch gets into Gutsy. Gutsy is supposed to have newer X that supports hot-plugging stuff like external monitors on a completely new level. It should take care of this bug. We will see the status of this bug after Gutsy has attempted to deliver that. ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu)

Cool, I hope the patch makes it into Gutsy. Also, at least on my machine, /usr/bin/i810switch is setuid root, so you don’t need to run it with sudo. -- Connecting External Monitor does not work on Thinkpad x60 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/42898 You received this bug notification because you a

I get the same as Kerouac (Thinkpad T60, Feisty): Fn + F7 doesn't work, but brightness control switches to external monitor. ?! The laptop display is switched off while the external monitor is on. Is the weird keyboard issue just a misconfiguration in Feisty? How does one fix this? -- Connectin
