[Bug 541549] [NEW] [Lucid] External monitor does not work on a Toshiba Tecra M9

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When booting without an external monitor connected to a Toshiba Tecra M9
laptop and then connecting one, nothing appears on the monitor. When
opening the Monitors application, the external monitor is detected but
nothing appears on the monitor. However, the desktop does seem to span
across both the laptop and the monitor as observed by scrolling the
mouse to the right of the laptop.

When booting with an external monitor, the desktop appears across both
the laptop and the monitor. Then, disconnecting and reconnecting the
monitor keeps this configuration and keeps working.
