Public bug reported: I have to restart X (CTRL+ALT+BKSP) to get a projector to work with my Dell 1330 that came pre-installed with Ubuntu. I have to plug in the projector, then restart X, then re-login, then restart my presentation.
I was giving a talk at a professional conference and it was embarrassing that I had to reboot X and re-login while everyone sat there waiting for me. One judge even came up to me and said "Don't give presentations on Linux" when I was done. Great.... My Specs: Ubuntu 8.04 Dell 1330 with integrated graphics (intel?) I'm happy to attach any log/config files if it would be helpful. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Need to Restart X (CTRL+ALT+BKSP) to turn on ext monitor / projector https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271626 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
