Two ports are used on box

 DVI port cable (goes to acer 16:10 monitor)
HDMI port cable (goes to dell monitor; one displaying the "Optimum resolution 
1280x1024 60Hz" mentioned in initial report, as that is an old 4:3 monitor)

I am NOT using VGA, but I do have different ports being used (DVI & HDMI
on box).

Do note:  The HDMI cable is HDMI connector on computer end, but is DVI
on the monitor-end of the cable; both my monitors are using DVI
connectors (both monitors too old for HDMI)

---

In working out which cable went to each monitor I booted installed
system and paused it at grub, i disconnected the HDMI (to see which
display went dark), then re-inserted cable and reboot into live media

today the lubuntu 20240916 LIVE media displayed on both monitors??
exited

rebooted to grub (debian testing/sid owns grub on box) & selected
lubuntu oracular (installed system mentioned in report) and system
booted up with both displays working (sddm & lubuntu session) ??

Only changes being 
- different day
- both ACER & DELL monitors were turned off & turned back on (hoping it'd tell 
me which cable was being used; as monitors are connected to two boxes & set to 
auto)
- HDMI cable unplugged from box; delay (checking which monitor went dark) & 
reconnect cable


YET i can't re-create what I did on original bug report???

Again on 
- dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 
5000/6000/7350/8350)

I'm tempted to mark this bug as incomplete given today's testing.. but
I'll re-test when I can.
