** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
  
  When running the noveau driver on an HP Pavillion dv3510nr Notebook
  (running Lucid Lynx beta 1 x64), it is not possible to switch display
  modes using the laptop's FN+F4 key.   This notebook has an NVIDIA 9300M
- graphics card.
- 
-  If booted with an external display, the notebook defaults to "Extend"
- mode in which the desktop is spread across both the LCD and the external
- monitor, with apparently no way to switch between them.  If not booted
- with an external monitor, it cannot be activated.
+ graphics card.  The modes can be changed with the monitor settings
+ application, however.
  
  Display switching also does not work using the restricted NVIDIA
- drivers.  In this case, it is possible to controlwhich displays are
- active and in what mode (extend, duplicate, or single) using the NVIDIA
- X-server settings application, but any change requires restarting the X
- server.
+ drivers.  In this case, it is possible to control the display mode using
+ the NVIDIA X-server settings application, but any change requires
+ restarting the X server.
  
  Display switching using FN+F4 worked as expected in Karmic and Jaunty
