It's not a bug in the xrandr program, but more likely in the driver.

[Bug 144225] Re: Fn + F8 doesn't work on Dell Inspiron 6400 to switch display to another monitor
I can confirm the bug on a Dell Latitude D510 (Intel graphics card). The machine is running Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon and it's a major nuisance since I can not hold any presentations using a video projector due to this issue. The key combo used to work when I was running Kubuntu 6.10. However, the image was flickering... Could you please look into the issue? Maybe the upcoming Ubuntu version will fix this? hopefully Thanks a lot! -- Fn + F8 doesn't work on Dell Inspiron 6400 to switch display to another monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144225 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

Same on a Dell D830. The Fn+F8 key that should activate VGA output is not working. The log says: [ 280.168152] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x8b on isa0060/serio0). [ 280.168161] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e00b ' to make it known. I'm using latest Ubuntu Hardy. This bug is important, as it makes laptops unusable for presentations with projectors. Shouldn't be considered as "low" importance.

[Bug 144225] Re: Fn + F8 doesn't work on Dell Inspiron 6400 to switch display to another monitor
ok, it works on gusty beta but not as supposed assume we start with only laptop LCD working it should switch between 3 situations 1 - redirect all output to VGA out and switch laptop LCD off (to save battery). 2 - switch both on. 3 - return to original situation (laptop LCD on and VGA out off). another notice is that executing "xrandr --auto" turns both on althought Fn + F8 doesn't do that I don't know what is exactly do I see the external monitor is switched off and immediately on again and laptop LCD is always on. -- Fn + F8 doesn't work on Dell Inspiron 6400 to switch display to another monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144225 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
