I installed the latest xubuntu, because my laptop has a centrino processor and runs better with the xface configuration. I update it regularly.
I tried the dual screen in it a while ago. It still did not work. I tired it a while ago in 8.04 . I still have the same problem. I used to have Vista home edition (it is thanks to that operating system that I discovered ubuntu) the only thing is that with Vista home edition I could have the dual monitor configuration no problem. Thank you for your reply.
