** Description changed: I have a Thinkpad T60. If I boot from the RC1 live CD, graphical modesetting seems to work well if the external monitor is not connected at boot time. If I then plug in the monitor, I can then switch to a new resolution (1920x1080) from the old resolution (1400x1050). Switching back and forth multiple times seems to work well, in the 10 minutes I've been playing with the system. However, if I boot with the monitor connected, then the resolution is set to 1024x768 on both screens, and when I try to set the resolution to something more useful, eventually the entire screen starts flickering with weird horizontal lines on the laptop's monitor, and the external monitor display wiggles around rapidly. The display is not usable under such circumstances. External monitor: Dell S2409W Apparent workaround: boot with monitor disconnected, and then after logging in, connect the external monitor.
