[Bug 529921] Re: Alpha 3 Lucid, external monitor is not working as expected

 

apport information

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
  
  Hello,
  
  I use the xorg-edgers PPA and Gnome-Shell on a MacBook 5,1 generation.
  
  The problem is when I try to connect a external screen (a HP w2207) through the Mini Display port, using a mini display port to vga adapter, the monitor "crashes".
  Please look at this picture http://tinyurl.com/yb284wj it will explain it better than I can do.
  The monitor is recognized both in Display and with xrandr
  
  What I've tried:
  * Enable and disable with Display application
  * Disable Gnome-Shell
  * Disable Compiz
  * Have the screen connected from start. (Doesn't work, bug #529563)
  * Run with the stock drivers from Live-CD, then both screens goes blank.
  
  It does work with the proprietary driver.
  
  Idea: could it be that nouveau sends different signals or such?
