[SF Basilix <sf_basilix@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am having the same issue with my laptop. It is a Dell E6510 with an
Intel Core i5 chip and with the Intel graphics (not nvidia).  Vanilla
install of Ubuntu 10.04 with all patches applied (up to date as of
posting) and I cannot use the external video display.  Upon plugging in
an external monitor using the VGA adapter and then going into
System->Preferences->Monitors, I get a black screen and no mouse
movements at all.  Even CTRL+ALT+BKSP doesn't kick me out of X.

I've tried all of the above options and they did not work.

Here is more info to help diagnose the problem, if anyone needs anything
else, please let me know and I will post.

System has latest A03 bios but it did the same thing with A01 and A01.1
