[Bug 542603] Re: Dual Monitor Blanks Out Suddenly

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  I have two days ago attached an external TFT monitor to my HP Compaq
  nx6115 notebook. The monitor is Viewsonic VA1912. I set up dual displays
  using System->Preferences->Display as a mirror.
  
  I have noticed that the external viewsonic monitor suddenly goes blank
  and the display stops working. A message pops up saying "No signal". The
  notebook display however, is working fine.
  
  On the two occassions that this has happened, I was using the mouse. In
  the first instance, some link in Firefox and in the recent incident, a
  mail header in thunderbird.
  
  as Xorg.0.log.old shows there seems to have been some problem with X
  (ddxSigGiveup) which made the second monitor go blank.
