** Description changed: - Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel + It seems to be the multiple monitors KCM for KDE that is not working for + some cards. Most of the time, dual screens only revert to a display + clone on my i915 box, but last I checked it works with Nouveau on my box + with an older NVIDIA card. - It seems that the modesetted version of the i915 driver does not support - two separate displays, I can get only a display clone, no matter what I - try in systemsettings. However in the non modesetted version it works - fine. - - I am trying this with the LVDS display, and a VGA cable monitor. (I - have no displayport on this laptop, so I can't test the display port - its showing.) + I tried ARANDR on my box with the i915 driver, and it was able to set an + expanded desktop.
