Title:
  second monitor problems

Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I plug in a 22" widescreen monitor to my laptop Dell Inspiron 1545,
  but in system configuration theres no option to set it as a widescreen
  1080p monitor, as 4:3 VGA only. I run a sript that fix it for a while,
  but when I restart my PC appears an error and I most run this script
  again.... Do you know some permanent solution?

  Thanks.

  
  #!/bin/bash
  # Modified for Vaio with 1920x1080 external on VGA
  XCOM0=`xrandr -q | grep 'VGA1 connected'`
  XCOM1="xrandr --output VGA1 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800 --left-of VGA1"
  XCOM2="xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1280x800"
  NEWMODE="xrandr --newmode "1920x1080" 148.50  1920 2448 2492 2640  1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync"
  ADDMODE="xrandr --addmode VGA1 1920x1080"

  # Always add this mode in case we need it (better would be to test first)
  eval $NEWMODE
  eval $ADDMODE

  if [ -n "$XCOM0" ] || [ ! "$XCOM0" = "" ];
  then
          # if the external monitor is connected, then we tell XRANDR to set up an extended desktop
          eval $XCOM1
  else
          # if the external monitor is disconnected, then we tell XRANDR to output only to the laptop screen
          eval $XCOM2
  fi
  exit 0;
