| Hello, yesterday I upgraded my system into 'lenny'. Now I've got a problem to get an external monitor working. Earlier with 'etch I had no problems. It worked just by plugging it in. I used a few hours reading other people's posts about this problems and tried tinkering this and that, but no solution. My laptop is HP nx9500 and the external monitor is a normal 'Compaq', which worked ok. earlier with 'etch'. Now the external monitor stops when gdm starts. Does anybody have a clue what to do. 1) Is there such a tool for reconfiguring 'xserver-xorg' so that I could use just one tool to get it working? I tried "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" a few times, but that is only reconfiguring the keyboard and keymaps and stops there. 2) If I'll do it by hand, what should I write onto 'xorg.conf' to get the external monitor working with the same rates as the internal display (, which was the earlier case)? Need I do something else for some other files? 3) I tried a few times to do something with/for 'xrandr', but it was of no help. with best, - hv |
