Whoops! I didn't read all the way through the last response, completely ignore my previous comment.
Thanks for the tip . Indeed, the large size of the virtual desktop was the problem. I was trying to have dual-monitor setup w/the laptop and a 19" monitor (1290x1024). At some point the "Display-Preferences" app messed up w/the xorg.conf and I didn't notice that. It expanded the virtual size of the desktop to 2560x1024 which IS higher than supported. I guess my lesson is not to expect a larger then 2048 virtual desktop from the 945? This essentially means no decent dual-monitor support from this laptop... or am I missing something? -- Poor display performance w/Intel 945GM, cannot enable desktop effects https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/360713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
