I have exactly the same symptoms with 2:2.8.0-2, I'm afraid. If I boot with the screen attached, xrandr works exactly as I would expect it to (and as it works on my more modern intel-powered laptop). If I boot without the screen attached, xrandr works exactly as I would expect except that nothing is ever displayed on the screen. (Sorry for the delay: the affected machine is semi-retired, and doesn't have a screen anywhere near it.) -- Will
