Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.5.8.0-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

This is my Device section:

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon R250 Lf [FireGL 9000]"
	Driver		"ati"
	BusID		"PCI:1:0:0"
#	Option		"MonitorLayout" "LVDS, CRT"
#	Option		"BIOSHotkeys" "on"
EndSection

earlier today I uncommented the two commented line to make sure to have
video output on the external VGA, and it worked.

Later on, however, I restarted X without video output and instead of
having gdm I'd have the screen circling between all read, all green, all
blue and so on.

Recommenting the two options made xorg start again.

Cheers,

Enrico
