When booting up while docked, the external monitor is enabled but using the wrong resolution. When booting undocked and then docking the laptop, the correct resolution for the external monitor cannot be set. LVDS is the internal display, HDMI-1 is the dvi-output of the docking station. Using Ubuntu 8.10 beta (updated it today) with xorg 1:7.4~5ubuntu1. Expected behaviour: - Boot the laptop while docked, lid is closed - External monitor is enabled using its native resolution (1600x1200) - Internal display is disabled Actual behaviour: - Boot the laptop while docked, lid is closed - External monitor is enabled using the internal display's native resolution (1440x900) - Internal display is enabled Expected behaviour: - Boot the laptop while not docked, lid open - Internal display is enabled - Close lid, dock the laptop - External monitor is enabled using its native resolution (1600x1200), internal display is disabled Actual behaviour: - Boot the laptop while not docked, lid open - Internal display is enabled - Close lid, dock the laptop - External monitor is not being enabled So there are two problems: - When docking/undocking the monitors are not automatically enabled/disabled - The wrong resolution is set for the external monitor when booting docked To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/286001/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
