However subsequent attempts have my laptop picking the TV as being much bigger than it is (72" rather than 23") and the TV failing to display anything. Much finding and greping has so far revealed no changes in /etc and nothing useful in /var/log, or under udev directories. Can anyone offer any pointers on where I might find how it is picking up the monitor to see what might have changed? > > The most useful log file is /var/log/Xorg.0.log. This sounds like a monitor detection problem. Which type of cable are you using to the monitors? Look in the logs for EDID. Probably just post the whole Xorg.0.log here if it fits and someone will be able to help. The work around for EDID problems can be tricky to get working. James
