With kernel 2.6.32rc7 and xorg-edgers' intel driver (2.9.0+git), I could switch to a console (tty1), and dump kernel messages after the GPU hang (and reboot properly). It seems that by default, the Gnome screen resolution menu sets external monitor to extended at right, which could break with

Ok I see, calling xrandr will by default expand the virtual screen as if the external monitor is right of LVDS, even if we directly call xrandr --output VGA1 --below LVDS. I tried with LVDS1=1280x800 and VGA1=1280x1024 (native resolutions, chosen by default). VGA1 at the right/left of LVDS1 will

I am affected by this bug, too, and it definitely needs to be fixed. I can't believe that this bug got into the release, especially since it was reported 6 weeks ago. If you need any more information or testers of fixes, please tell me how I can help. -- [i945gm] [karmic] X servers hangs when

Switching to metacity before connecting the second monitor works for me. Interestingly, I can enable compiz with the second monitor connected, the output produced by it is as follows: Checking for Xgl: not present. xset q doesn't reveal the location of the log file. Using fallback

I am having this issue with up-to-date post-release fresh install of karmic i386 32bit with intel 945gm. It is very annoying to have to restart simply to use dual head. It is very predictable and consistent. This worked just fine in Jaunty. Will try the metacity workaround - would prefer working

I've been doing some more testing on the Dell D420 referred to in #14. If I boot with the 2nd monitor connected, the system starts with the displayed mirrored. I can then use system / preferences / display to make the displays different. If I unplug the monitor, I can use system / preferences /

The following comment in bug 383345 seems to sum up the root cause of this issue. Though, why it worked in Jaunty and not in Karmic, I don't know. No bling for me! Please, before setting dual screen, disable desktop effects (compiz). Compiz cannot work at resolution higher than 2048x2048
