Tried the patch from Paolo and it works great with the Dell D420 (intel 945GM gfx) on Edgy. Thx a lot Paolo!!
FWIW I attach Paolos patch as debdiff, so it's a bit easier to update the edgy pkg sources. Paolo: can you elaborate how dirty your fix is? Is it from your POV clean enough to be included into a backport? -- External monitor on intel 945GM/Dell D620 (and D420) causes lockup. https://launchpad.net/bugs/50243 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
