I have a laptop with F10, and am trying to get an external VGA LCD panel to
work (in a dual-head setting).
I did the following:
* login using gnome
* attach + power up monitor (it goes into 'no-signal' power save mode)
* Fire up gnome-display-properties (System > Preferences > Hardware >
Screen Resolution)
It detects the external monitor; I select it, change its resolution from
'off' to '1440x900', click apply, and the monitor resolutely stays in
power save mode.
Also, quitting then restarting gnome-display-properties shows the
monitor's resolution setting has switched back to 'off'.
Any suggestions?
It's a Dell 640m laptop with Intel 945GM graphics.
