[Bug 478859] [NEW] Multiple monitors not supported

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I am using an IBM Thinkpad R60 with Intel Integrated Graphics. Upon
plugging in my second monitor (LCD TV), both my laptop's monitor and the
TV go black... the mouse can be seen on the left side of the TV (to the
right of my laptop's monitor)... but I cannot move the mouse.

If I boot Ubuntu 9.10 with the monitor already plugged in, the 'Mirror'
functionality works, but when I go to System > Preferences > Display,
both screens turn black (exactly the same as when I plug in the second
monitor).

I was able to use my second monitor as an extension of my current
desktop with 9.04 with only small bugs here and there.
