** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel I'm using Ubuntu 8.10. I have a new Dell Optiplex 960 - this machine has a built in Intel graphics controller with a Dell displayport digital output, in addition to a normal VGA output. If I connect the PC to my Dell 2408WFP monitor via the displayport, everything proceeds fine up to the point where X tries to start, at this point the Intel video driver fails to detect any connected monitors and bombs out. Ubuntu responds by re-starting X with the VESA driver, which works (although slowly and with resolution below that which I want to use). If I connect the monitor via the VGA port, everything works fine - X boots successfully using the Intel driver (although I would obviously prefer to use the displayport connection for quality reasons). The PC/Monitor combination works fine using displayport if i boot in Windows. I tried compiling the latest version of xf86-video-intel from source (V 2.6.99.1) - the problem does exist in this latest version of the driver too. xorg.conf is not changed from the standard Ubuntu + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset DRAM Controller [8086:2e10] (rev 03) + Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:0276] + 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2e12] (rev 03) + Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:0276]
