Yea, I think the complete xorg freeze-up issues are different as I can still switch to a console and CTRL+ALT+BKSP just fine to kill the server (and it looks like the others with Mobility 7500s can too). Just to be clear for others, this bug is for the open 'ati' driver, not the proprietary

Alex is not very verbose about which upstream fix, but I guess it is the newer LVDS handling and mode fixes. They came after 6.7.193 which is in Gutsy, but they will be included in 6.7.194. Hopefully also the latter will be accepted in Gutsy since it has many bug fixes (and nothing else). Please

Does not fix it for me either. I do have some more info though. After Xorg starts, I can login (blindly) and then run the xrandr commands from the console. It seems that the code for each mode is different when the external monitor is not connected. See attached output with 194 driver. **
