With the new randr-1.2 that's in all of the 2.x intel drivers,

monitors are handled a bit differently. You just have a single device
section that refers to both of them. Take a look at
http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html for details.
Thank you so much for your help. However, I'm slow at this. Sorry. :-
( Here's my updated xorg.conf file:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel 945G "
Driver "intel"
Option "monitor-LVDS" "Builtin"
Option "monitor-TMDS-1" "External Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Builtin"
Option "PreferredMode" "1280x800"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "External Monitor"
VendorName "DEL"
ModelName "DELL 2407WFP"
Option "PreferredMode" "1920x1200"
Option "ReducedBlanking"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Intel 945G"
Monitor "Builtin"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x800" "1024x768" "640x480"
Virtual 2048 2048
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "External Screen"
Device "Intel 945G"
Monitor "External Monitor"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1920x1200" "1600x1200" "1680x1050"
"1024x768" "640x480"
Virtual 2048 2048
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Dual Layout"
Screen 0 "Default Screen"
Screen 1 "External Screen" Above "Built-in Screen"
Option "Clone" "On"
#Option "Xinerama" "On"
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse"
EndSection
And this is the output:
(WW) intel: More than one matching Device section found: Intel 945G
(WW) intel: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1)
found
I get the same default screen resolutions, although xrandr now
reports that screen 0 has a maximum size of 2048x2048. I think I'm on
the right track... and thanks again for replying to my question.
