Hi Joseph,

oh sh*t,  looking for the version of my Ubuntu I saw
that I didn't install 12.04 but 12.10
Thank you for your help.
I'll change the system now and give you report after.

Have had the same problem in 12.10 and 13.04 but works fine in 12.04 and 12.04.2
Difference seems to be Kfce and does it see the correct driver and second monitor..
In my case this driver is Nvidia 304.48
ArandR and 'display' in settings may show the second monitor in some cases but the values are bad if the wrong driver is in place..
Sysinfo from the software center may tell you if your system is seeing the right display information.

Hallo,
I'm new on this board and if I'm wrong here, sorry please, kindly drop me line.

My entry.
I know Linux since the late 80ies but I did not work continously
work with it, because it was  mostly for me to difficult to handle.
You see I'm not a real Newby, but I got more and more sick of beeing
the administrator rather than an operator who wanted to work with Linux.

Another reason was that Linux - from Redhat over Suse and Debian to Ubuntu
- never provided a pleasant enviroment  for me  and especially for the applications
I wanted to run (Officeapps, Mediaapps). So far ....
Since I'm now in retirement I find that there is no more reason to hold
an expensive and extremly  by it's provider controlled OS  on my Computer
I decided to make another trial with Linux, Ubuntustudio 12.04, KDE

My issue
Hardware: Thinkpad ( Lenovo X61T )
OS:             Ubuntustudio 12.04 running with KDE installed on USB-stick, 32 GiB
                   with nearly 22 GiB free space) (no Live-Version)
Aim:           Running a second screen as an extended and not as a clone

First impression: easy to install, even the printer!!!! That was really new for me
                               and raised hopes.

But all my trials to run an extended screen got fail and were ending to a Clone and
after some investigations in the net and some queries  with the
Xserver and randr I couldn't solve my problem. I do not really remember whether
I changed a parameter, but when I started my Ubuntu next day, Ubuntu doesn't
rember  or accept my password.

Who can help me a) with the password lock and b) with the extended screen?

Regards
