[Bug 779164] [NEW] dual display does not work under natty narwhal

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

with Maverick Meerkat (10.10) dual display works perfectly.  The laptop
and large panel monitors have independent resolution.  Using Natty
Narwhal (11.04) I cannot get this configuration to work.  When I do plug
in the second monitor I do see windows on both screens, but the windows
spill over the edges into nowhere land.  Drag and click mouse commands
mostly do not work at all.  I really like this new release, but I may
have to return to 10.10 if this problem is not resolved soon.  I did
download another app, multiple screens (grandr), but that does not work
either.  Thanks for whatever you can do to repair this problem with
Narwhal!
