just to confirm, the Fn/int/ext key works without windows (i heard toshiba fn keys required special windows drivers) because i can force to external display during the boot up sequence, even during the ubuntu load screen. but once X starts it takes control and activates both displays again. how rude. after that the key does nothing.
i also noticed that the internal display does not power down when the screen goes blank after several minutes to save power -- just black (not off). i know these are all different bugs. trying downgrade xserver-xorg-video-ati to fiesty version... -- no video overlay on external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155157 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
