One more note: After doing the xrandr command just above, the GUI seems to work just fine to change the resolution of the monitors, but it won't then allow you to switch off the second monitor.

I have this bug on a Dell E6400 with the same graphics chip as mentioned above from Intel. I think this may be a duplicate of bug 316887. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control- center/+bug/316887 For me xrandr seems to work, thought he GUI does not. Here is the xrandr command for those who need a work around. $ xrandr --output LVDS --auto --output VGA --auto --same-as LVD Best regards, Rob -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have the same problem as initially described, however I noticed that my Fn-F7 key works (did not work in previous Ubuntu releases) so this issue is currently solved for me. I hope this helps some of you as a temporary solution. -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[This is an automatic notification.] A new major version of the -intel driver is now available in Karmic. This version includes a major reworking of the acceleration architecture, which resolves a huge number of issues. We do not know whether it resolves the issue you reported. Would you mind testing Karmic Alpha-2 and seeing if it is still a problem? CD ISO images are available here: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/releases/karmic/ If the issue can still be reproduced on karmic, please report here with your findings, and attach a fresh Xorg.0.log from your test, and we will be able to forward the bug upstream. Otherwise, if the bug no longer exists in Karmic, let us know that as well. In the off chance you encounter different bugs while attempting to test Karmic, please report those as new bug reports. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => New ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I'll try to get a backtrace as soon as possible. I'd just thought I'd mention though that it turns out that this defect (and the segfault in Xrandr) only happens on one monitor I have - I tried another (newer) monitor and two projectors and it worked fine there. -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Stephen, please file a new bug report for your problem. Since you get a segmentation fault, it should be possible to get a backtrace.

We have a laptop here with a Intel 915 that gives the same message. Attempting to use Xrandr just results in a segmentation fault if the monitor is plugged in. -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The Display settings GUI dialog is the program gnome-display-properties, which is part of the gnome-control-center binary and source packages. I have therefore added gnome-control-center to this bug. ** Also affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

For completeness and to help people not familiar with xrandr work around this bug, could you state the exact xrandr command the achieves the desired outcome? -- [GM45, 945] Unable to mirror to external monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/368518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
