Update to the problem. This is a copy of my response on the devel discuss mailing list where I was also asking about this.
Well I got it [Screens and Graphics] to detect both monitors for a little bit. At first all it would show was my secondary monitor (which was not activated) when I pressed detect. After I set the correct resolution and restarted the x server, It showed a second monitor which I presumed to be my laptop's monitor. After I set that resolution, I tried to reset the x server again and got the following error: /etc/gdm/failsavexserver: line47 [: too many arguments warning: could not retrieve EDID because set-edid is not installed (1): error: this program does not know how to configure the "10 shared/default-x-server doesnt exist." X server warning:Could not generate /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe for vesa driver. -- Xorg does not properly detect and configure second monitor in Hardy Alpha 1 (Nvidia) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/174042 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
