[Bug 231081] Re: ati driver will not turn on external display
I did get into a conversation with the developer at the above mentioned bug (15708). I am happy to report that it is fixed in the latest version of the source code. If you would like to get this version before it makes it to the repositories, you will have to build your xorg from source. I can say it worked fine for me with my environment on my hardware. I can make no warranties or raise any hopes that you will have the same success. There are instructions in the bug ( http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15708 ) on how to build with git. Once again, it works for me, but you have to be willing to build from scratch. -- ati driver will not turn on external display https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231081 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
[Bug 231081] Re: ati driver will not turn on external display
Would going back to Gutsy be a permanent solution? In other words, the ati driver will never be fixed for this bug, so I need to stay with Gutsy until this machine dies. Or is it just until this bug gets looked at? I am willing to wait if I know that someone is looking into fixing this bug, but if it is going to remain broken, then I'll just go back to Gutsy and be happy there.

[Bug 231081] Re: ati driver will not turn on external display
It works, but it is definitely a work-around. My 19-inch monitor is mirroring my 1024x768 LVDS. This is better than what I had before because I can actually use my monitor, but I would prefer to be able to get at least 1280x1024 on the external monitor and to be able to shut the LVDS off (I used to do this with xrandr). Is there any work happening to get these older cards working in the driver? -- ati driver will not turn on external display https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231081 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

[Bug 231081] Re: ati driver will not turn on external display
I have seen several places around the 'net mentioning this problem with the ATI driver and this older IGP card. Is there any workaround someone has come up with? Or is it time for me to get a new machine. I have to say that one of the things I hated about M$ was having to upgrade hardware for software changes. I have been pleasantly surprised by the lack of such a need until the latest release. Can someone, anyone, help me get my external VGA-0 port working again?

[Bug 231081] Re: ati driver will not turn on external display
Where can I find a different ATI driver than what came in Hardy Heron? I either need to fall back to the ati driver that was working in Gutsy, or I need to jump ahead to where this bug is fixed.

Can I get the ati driver from Gutsy to run in Hardy? If I could find the Gutsy ati driver, could I somehow replace the newer driver with the older without having to recompile?

[Bug 231081] Re: ati driver will not turn on external display
Yes, I tried the no xorg.conf route after reading about it somewhere else. I was still unable to get the external to wake up. I will admit to being somewhat of a n00b when it comes to xorg, however. All I got with the vesa driver (which is what loaded with no xorg.conf) was 600x800 on my built-in lcd, still nothing to my VGA-0.

[Bug 231081] [NEW] ati driver will not turn on external display
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-ati ATI IGP 340M video card. Under Gutsy, I could use xrandr to switch between LVDS and VGA-0. When I upgraded to Hardy, I can not get VGA-0 to display. Details: During boot up, I can see all images. I forced the vesa driver in lo-res mode and it was able to display to my external monitor (VGA-0). Once gdm loads, the external monitor goes into standby (i.e., the display goes dark and the power LED blinks). No combination of xorg.conf and xrandr options has given me a display. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-driver-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ati driver will not turn on external display https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231081 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

[Bug 229177] Re: Blank external VGA Monitor on Hardy Heron.
I have the same bug on HP pavilion ze5500. ATI IGP 330M/340m/350M video card. I have played extensively with xorg.conf and xrandr and I can not get X to display on my monitor. At boot, the monitor mirrors the LVDS perfectly, but as soon as gdm starts, the monitor goes black, as if in standby. ** Attachment added: Xorg.0.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14513784/Xorg.0.log -- Blank external VGA Monitor on Hardy Heron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229177 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
