Hey Joseph,


Thanks for your interest in Ubuntu.

Thanks for testing maverick during its development period.
Unfortunately it looks like this bug report didn't get attention during
the maverick development period.  But I see there's not been more
comments on the bug since the release, which makes me wonder if this is
still an issue for you?

If you've not seen this issue since maverick's release yourself, it may
have been solved by kernel or X or other updates that occurred late in
the release; if so, would you mind please closing the bug for us?  Go to
the URL mentioned in this bug report, click the yellow icon(s) in the
status column and set to 'Fix Released'.

If you no longer have the hardware needed to reproduce the problem, or
otherwise feel the bug no longer needs tracked in Launchpad, you can set
the status to 'Invalid'.

If you are the original reporter and still have this issue, just reply
to this email saying so.  (Or set the bug status to Confirmed.)  If you
are able to re-test this against 11.04 Natty Narwhal (our current
development focus) and find the issue still affects Natty, please also
run 'apport-collect <bug-number>' while running natty, which will add
fresh logs and debug data, and flag it for the Ubuntu-X development team
to look at.


** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  Whenever I plug my laptop into an external monitor (VGA cable) the
  display on the external monitor looks very blurry. What should be
  straight lines seem to be constantly 'dancing'. Under Windows 7 on the
  same machine it works fine. It doesn't matter whether the external
  monitor is mirroring or acting as a secondary display, still fuzzy.
  
  The laptop comes with nvidia optimus (hybrid nvidia/intel) but I've
  disabled the nvidia chip in the BIOS settings, so I'm pretty sure this
  should be an intel driver issue. I've tried different VGA cables, but
  they don't make any difference either. I also tried upgrading to the git
  intel drivers from this repo but they have the same problem.
  
  I tried checking /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but it doesn't appear to exist in
  Maverick. I also went into the display settings and saw that it said the
  monitor refresh rate was 60hz and 1980x1020 resolution, just like it
  should.
