I tried restarting X and rebooting to no avail in trying to get
this Ubuntu T60 Thinkpad w/ ATI card working with a computer projector at work.

Is there any hope before I try upgrading my ATI drivers?

(I really hated always installing nVidia drivers so I hope I won't be
forced into that game with ATI.)

What is the ATI chip that is in your laptop?

What do the logs show for detecting the connected monitors (/var/log/Xorg.0.log)? Does the projector show up?

What version of the Xorg server are you running?

What version of the Radeon (ATI) drivers are you using?

Does your version of Ubuntu have xrandr version 1.2?

If you have xrandr 1.2 try the following with the projector connected:

$ xrandr --output VGA --auto --same-as LVDS

See <http://www.x.org/wiki/radeon> and <http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2> for more info.
