Bruno Girin, 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 xserver-xorg-video-ati 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.

It works as expected when I set the external monitor as a mirror of the LCD. The external monitor is an old NEC 15" LCD. Steps to reproduce: 1. Plug in the external monitor to the VGA port of the laptop, 2. Switch the external monitor on, 3. Press Fn+F7 to enable dual-monitor setup. Expected behaviour: The desktop extends to the external monitor. Actual behaviour: The display is corrupted on both monitors.
