Of course that would solve solve the problem nominally. However lowering the
resolution on LCD screens looks ugly. However I would't describe my current
situation as a bug but rather as a missing feature.

Well, in a case like this you will have to settle to the lowest common
denominator, that is, the lowest-highest possible resolution for both
of your screens. For example, if your laptop's screen supports
1400x1150, but your external LCD screen only supports 1024x768, then
you're stuck with the
Rouben,
I think you are absolutely right. Please close the bug. Thanks for the
effort.

I had forgotten about this. I got it sort of working using aticonfig to

It would seem that your external monitor can't handle your laptop
LCD's resolution of 1400x1150... Can you try lowering the resolution?

Does setting DesktopSetup to clone help at all? Will the laptop
still work as desired if you don't have it docked/hooked up to an
external monitor? Will X load at all?
Hopefully this change will still work in single monitor mode and let you
hotplug an external monitor/dock without requiring an X
Correction: running ot not running fireglcontrolpanel has no effect. It

sometimes it needs to be restarted more than once.
