note that it appears that the driver is able to detect the VGA monitor. for some reason, it is not able to use it. It always uses the LVDS and DVI instead of VGA and DVI. I have tried specifying various combinations of screens in serverlayout section. This is what I expect it to work with:
Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen 0 "DVI" RightOf "VGA" Screen 1 "VGA" # Screen 1 "LVDS" InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" InputDevice "Configured Mouse" # Uncomment if you have a wacom tablet # InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents" # InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" # InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "Synaptics Touchpad" EndSection ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9954978/Xorg.0.log ** Also affects: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Can not use external VGA display (T43 + ATI + VGA) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
