*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 22985 *** Thanks for your reports. I'm afraid you might be mixing up some problems here. This bug report is a duplicate of report #22985 #22985 describes a problem that when using a laptop for desktop that has an ATI Radeon gfx chip and two monitor outputs, the "radeon" or "ati" driver would failt to recognise which port the monitor was connected on. On a laptop, that would mean that X-windows would start on the external monitor point even if no monitor was connected to it. The built-in LCD would stay black. Using the ctrl+alt+F1/F2/F... keys you were still able to see the text-based console.
I have marked this bug as a duplicate of #22985 because the initial reporter seems to have exactly the same problem as described in #22985.

If no such bug report exists already, feel free to file a new bug report. Please file or contribute to a separate bug report for each distinct problem you are observing. Using a single bug report for more than one defect makes it difficult to do bug triage.
