Hi Jane,
Looks like you just have a configuration error. Your xorg.conf is set
up to allow a 1280X1792 maximum combined resolution. However, your
laptop permits up to 1920x1440 and your external monitor supports up to
1920x1200.
I would recommend updating your xorg.conf to the following if you wish
mirrored displays:
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 1920 1440
EndSubSection
Or if you wish side-by-side displays, set it to:
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 3840 1440
EndSubSection
Or if you wish above-and-below displays, set it to:
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 1920 2640
EndSubSection
Theoretically, the GNOME X configuration tool ought to set this stuff up
for you automatically, so if it isn't, that's probably a bug for Alberto
Milone to look into.
