I think the problem is that X windows dosn't understand that you are changing monitors.. so you need a configuration file that has setting that will work on both u're external monitor and the laptop monitor. If I am correct at identifying the problem, then a simple solution is to have 2 config files and write a script to copy the right one depending on u're monitor and restart X... I am not an expert at this.. but check out XFree86.org and check the mailing lists tehre.. ask the same Q there and u'll prolly get a better reply.. or write to the X newsgroup.. u're sure to get lots of replies since this is not a mandrake-related query. And ya, definitely mail the solution once you find one! Also, are u running X 3.3.6 or 4.0.1? maybe 4.X has better support for diff monitors! -sarang
