So I kept on playing with it a little more with the default xorg.conf file, which produces the 1280x768 output on the LVDS.
Like I said the LVDS is still not being detected, but since X assumes a default screen size of 1280x768 on the non-attached external display I did some more experimentation and found that the following results in something useful on the screen with direct rendering enabled: # build a modeline - the following works for me gtf 1024 768 78.654 # then use the output from above (everything after the word modeline) # to set the resolution of the non-existent external monitor xrandr --newmode "1024x768_78.65" 87.02 1024 1088 1200 1376 768 769 772 804 -HSync +Vsync xrandr --addmode VGA-0 "1024x768_78.65" xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode "1024x768_78.65" I think it's still problematic that the LVDS is not detected, since it keeps me from running dual headed, but at least the laptop is semi-functional. I've attached the current xrandr output after the above tweaks. ** Attachment added: "xrandr.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15578189/xrandr.txt -- no screens found for IGP 320M https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190857 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
