Hi again, Following up on my previous problem (described below), I've run into this situation:
Use my laptop without external attachments, then hibernate. Connect the laptop to the docking station with external monitor attached. Resume: the screen colors are distorted, making text barely legible. Hibernate and resume, leaving the laptop connected to the docking station: colors are fine, I just need to run grandr to fix the screen size. This is slightly better than having to restart X to correct the colors on my monitor, but I'd still like to avoid this extra hibernate/resume cycle if possible. Any ideas?
