Hi, thank you a lot for your post.
I already yesterday tried by replacing the newly created xorg.conf file by the backups I had there. It didn't help. I will still try with other backups. I have got several of them, because I have tried as well "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" That didn't help at all, because it reconfigured only the keyboard... with best, - hv --- On Fri, 2/20/09, kawk <kawk...@gmail.com> wrote: From: kawk <kawk...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: external monitor?

Copy your current xorg.conf file to /tmp/, and replace it with the most recent backup. Restart the X server and see what happens. -- - kawk There is no darkness in eternity Only Light too dim for us to see.
