Title:
Radeon X300 detect too many screens
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati
After the upgrade to Karmic from Jaunty, my Thinkpad Z60m can no
longer use the external monitor connected via VGA. When I plug in the
monitor and "Detect Monitors", the system detect 3 instead of 2. The
laptop LVDS display is always there, but when I connect the VGA
monitor, xrandr (and Display Preferences) detect the VGA monitor and a
third display (DVI-0). It didn't do this in Jaunty. For some reason
this prevents me from using the correct resolution on the external VGA
display (1680x1050, the same as the laptop LVDS).
xrandr output with nothing connected:

As you can see, it incorrectly detects a DVI-0 zero screen, and uses
the same modes (max of 1360x768) for that and the VGA-0 display which
should have 1680x1050 available.
I've tried using xrandr to only enable the VGA display, but have had
no success.
I've tried the following in xorg.conf without success:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "radeon"
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,CRT"
EndSection
Is there a known work around to this? Or is there a bug in the radeon
driver which is mis-detected a phantom display?
