I am running Ubuntu 8.04 with up-to-date 2.6.24.23-generic SMP kernel,
on an Asus W7J.
I' ve found a partial solution for Fn+F8 key that works for me, but I
need more help to close definitively the problem.
After some searches (over nights)the solution for me is to disable
video module :
sudo rmmod video
and then
sudo su
echo 5 /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/display
EUREKA!!!
My Desktop is on TV screen with wonderful colors and simultaneously on
my laptop-display.
But that's not the real solution : - (((
When I did in console:
(as root) echo 1 /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/display --- ONLY
laptop-display at correct resolution working!!!
(as root) echo 5 /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/display -- not
LCD+TV with correct resolution as I expected, but LCD at correct
resolution and TV in BLACK and WHITE at little resolution (I think
640x480)
Notes: After restart of X the problem is solvedbut only for the first time
I pass echo 5 /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/display
...then the same situation descripted above.
I hope my step over is useful for someone, but I need help to completly
correct this bug.
Thanks all for consideration.
I'm sorry for my bad english
Good day
