** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati My computer is a Fujitsu/Siemens Laptop Lifebook E series with ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X1400. I'm using the xserver-xorg-video-ati open source driver. The native resolution of the screen is 1680x1050 (16:10) and it's working great except when you unplug a beamer. Steps to reproduce : 1) Have your screen in its native 1680x1050 resolution (16:10) 2) Hotplug a beamer. It will be detected as a screen in gnome-display-properties 3) Most beamer doesn't support such a high resolution (or requires a 4:3 ratio) and will stay black. With gnome-display-properties, lower your resolution (for example at 1024x768) 4) Do your presentation 5) Unplug the beamer. It will disapear from gnome-display-properties 6) Try to reset your resolution : 1680x1050 has disappeared. All other resolution up to 1600x1024 are available. Only this one is not. Workaround : restarting X (by logging out) is enough. GDM will automatically have the good resolution. + + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945GT Express Memory Controller Hub [8086:27a0] (rev 03) + Subsystem: Fujitsu Limited.
