Hello,
yesterday I upgraded my system
into 'lenny'.
Now I've got a problem to get
an external monitor working.
Earlier with 'etch I had no problems.
It worked just by plugging it in.
I used a few hours reading other people's
posts about this problems and tried
tinkering this and that, but no solution.
My laptop is HP nx9500 and the
external monitor is a normal 'Compaq',
which worked ok. earlier with 'etch'.
Now the external monitor stops
when gdm starts.
Does anybody have a clue what to do.
1)
Is there such a tool for reconfiguring
'xserver-xorg' so that I could use just one
tool to get it working?
I tried "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
a few times, but that is only reconfiguring
the keyboard and keymaps and stops there.
2)
If I'll do it by hand,
what should I write
onto 'xorg.conf' to get the external
monitor working with the same
rates as the internal display (, which
was the earlier case)?
Need I do something else
for some other files?
3)
I tried a few times to do something
with/for 'xrandr', but it was
of no help.
with best,
- hv
