[Bug 754799] Re: [arrandale] external VGA output doesn't output anything (i686)

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  1- Plug a monitor into the VGA output
  2- Press the monitor switching key (fn-F5)
  
  Expected result: 
  - Display appears on external monitor, either mirrored or as additional desktop space.
  
  Actual result:
  - The external monitor is shown in the Monitors panel, and gets correctly identified (I see Acer 19" or Dell 22", tested with two different screens)
  - However, the monitor itself reports "no signal", and displays nothing.
  
  I went as far back as Lucid and the problem still persists, so at least
  it doesn't appear to be a regression.
