Here's the latest. http://www.obrien-pifer.com/xorg.conf http://www.obrien-pifer.com/Xorg.0.log The log says the only valid resolutions are 640x480 up to 1280x800, which is true for the laptop display, but the hardware certainly supports higher res on the external connection. Here's another oddity. If I'm not in X I can hit Fn-F4 and turn the laptop's display off so the screen is only on the external display. As soon as I startx the laptop display comes back on, so both are on, and Fn-F4 does nothing. Thanks, James
