Same thing happens to me. With i810 drivers everything works. Even the fn-F5 key cycles between LCD, CRT, LCD+CRT...
with intel driver xrandr reports VGA monitor connected (When I connect it), and with the same resolution and position that the LCD one, but the external monitor doesn't wake up. In the debugged logs I can see that the Samsung monitor or an external EPSON projector is detected and the EDID chat is done. But I have no signal. I can turn off the LCD and it works. I can turn it on by typing blindly, and it works, but when I change any VGA output setting, even when xrandr reports the settings has been applied, nothing happens. I think the problem could be the VGA power saving option that keeps enabled. Anyone knows how can I interact directly with VGA card energy saving settings. -- [gutsy,hardy] Second display not enabled with "intel" video driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137234 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
