Similar issue occurs for me on an up to date Oneiric x86_64 install on a Dell Latitude E6400 but after connecting an external monitor the laptop screen goes completely back and the external monitor goes into standby after reporting no signal. Trying to switch to a virtual terminal does not reactivate the laptop screen, all I can do is hit the power button to reboot.
Attaching lspci output, let me know what else I can provide to help track down the cause. ** Attachment added: "lspci -v" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/808677/+attachment/2287370/+files/lspci.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/808677 Title: Failed to activate external monitor (dual monitor mode) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/808677/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
