Public bug reported:
I have a second display plugged into a Lenovo Thinkpad W510. It is
detected but it's only possible to have one display active at a time and
it's not possible to change the display resolution. Xrandr only shows
information about the active display, however very limited:
$ xrandr -q
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1680 x 1050, current 1680 x 1050, maximum 1680 x 1050
default connected 1680x1050+0+0 0mm x 0mm
1680x1050 0.0*
