Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
Running kernel 2.6.31-3.19 and xserver-xorg-video-intel
2:2.7.99.901+git20090702.74227141-0ubuntu1 on a Thinkpad W500 laptop, I
cannot get xrandr to place the VGA output anywhere but to the right of
the LVDS output.
In particular, I used to be able to run "xrandr --output VGA --auto
--above LVDS" or "xrandr --output VGA --auto --below LVDS" to get them
stacked vertically with respect to each other. Now, these commands do
nothing; the VGA output gets always placed to the right of LVDS and none
of these xrandr invocations change it.
Another minor annoyance: previously, running "xrandr" would only list
the state of the different outputs. Now, running "xrandr" seems to
automatically enable the VGA output, without any request on my behalf to
do so.
