External monitor positioned to the left of LCD. When width is less than
2048 pixels, everything works as expected. Crash with more than 2048
pixels could be from a Compiz problem (this GPU cannot handle more than
2048 pixels). With les
I am also experiencing this issue in Ubuntu 9.10 on a Dell D620. All
seems to work well when using only the laptop LCD; but I always use dual
monitors (extended desktop) at work. Attempting this in Ubuntu 9.10
causes complete lock-up, so I am forced to return to WinXP until this
issue is resolved
I'm having the same problem on an Acer Aspire A250. When
Appearance>Visual Effects is set to None, everything works just fine.
But when it's set to Normal or Extra and I try to extend the desktop,
the system will freeze with a black screen and a nonresponsive cursor
(even Num Lock is unresponsive.
One more thing: the problem does not exist when I turn Compiz off.
Without Compiz, I can run the second screen at up to 1152x864 (see
#486072) to the right of the LCD. The attached screenshot shows the
external screen running at 1024x768, with the framebuffer width that
doesn't work with Compiz.

This is the result. Note X didn't crash, but the leftmost column of
pixels show what appears to be the rightmost edge of the original LCD
(1024x600) desktop.
Also note (missing from previous attachment) the external monitor (an
IBM A70) is not being properly identified (see #486072)
