Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg-driver-fglrx
I am running dapper on a Dell Latitude D610, using a
Radeon Mobility M300 (as reported by lspci). At work I have an external monitor
attached through a port replicator using the digital interface. I have used
ati-config to set-up xorg to use a single screen mode (producing the following
lines in),
Section "Device"
Identifier "aticonfig-Device[0]"
Driver "fglrx"
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "DesktopSetup" "single"
EndSection
At x startup both the laptop screen and the external screen are enabled, but
the external one looks scrambled. Running fireglcontrolpanel shows that the
device is in a dual screen, clone mode. Changing to single mode in
fireglcontrolpanel and restarting x doing
sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
gets the system working in the desired mode, however the problem reapears after
a system reboot.
