Here is what I have add to my .xprofile: =======================
xrandr --newmode "1280x1024_60.00" 109.00 1280 1368 1496 1712 1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync xrandr --addmode VGA1 1280x1024_60.00 ======================= Note that the reason for these 2 lines is that Ubuntu doesn't properly recognize my external (just says "Unknown") and only allows a default resolution of 1024 x 768 without the above 2 lines (2 lines give me the resolution option of 1280x1024 for the external monitor). I should probably check to see if there is another bug related to Ubuntu not recognizing the external monitor properly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979748 Title: Laptop with Intel Graphics: external VGA monitor only gets signal on boot (no “hot plugging”) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/979748/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
