Hans Peter, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

If I connect an external monitor to my laptop (acer aspire 8942g) it connects and I can see a clear imagine, but if I try to turn off my laptops display via gnome-display-properties the external monitor continues working, but my laptops display starts to show my sequently changing colors on the full screen like on a display test. Sometimes I start my laptop and and the laptop display shows normal sometimes the resolution is low and sometimes it again shows these colors (always with my external monitor connected). I had ati proprietary drivers installed once and everything worked fine and I could turn my laptops display off, but not on the open source drivers. Also turning my laptops monitor with Fn+F6 does work, but after I press any key on the keyboard it turns on again.
