I've tested my laptop with Intreped Alpha 4 and have gotten much
farther.
With the CD's default setup (using the radeon driver, I believe), xrandr
detects my Dell external monitor. Further, using the Screen Resolution
app I can activate the external monitor and mirror the two screens.

I'll mark this particular bug as Fixed Released but yes it would be
quite useful if you were to submit a new bug regarding unchecking
Mirror Screens not working. Thanks!

I had a similar experience by using the ATI drivers (fglrx).
I spent much time on trying to fix it and I finally found an ugly workaround.
$ aticonfig --query-monitor

Enabled monitors: lvds
The previous command returns the list of monitors connected to the
I forgot to mention that I have to change the resolution before executing the
command.
If not, the beamer/monitor has a problem to display.

Yes, it still does. If I plug in the my external monitor, xrandr -q reports:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1400 x 1063, maximum 1400 x 1200
VGA-0 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
1280x1024 75.0 59.9
1152x864 74.8
1024x768 75.1 60.0
Does this occur on hardy? There's been a number of randr improvements
to -ati since Gutsy. I've tested on several ATI cards and did not see
this particular issue, although sometimes the list of available
resolutions is limited.
If it does still occur, please attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log from
This still does not work for me with the gutsy release candidate.

I should note that the bios was upgraded from A04 to A05 since it was
last tested on dapper. If that's likely to have made the difference, i
can boot off of a dapper live cd to test (don't have one available right
now).
