[Bug 394006] Re: external display not recognized

 

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  When I first installed Ubuntu about 6 weeks ago, I plugged in an
  external display and it was recognized and configured immediately.
  
  Now, perhaps because of an automatic update, my laptop will not
  recognize the display while running Ubuntu.  (It does under Vista).
  
  I have a 64 bit HP Pavillion dv9500  with a NVidia graphics card.
  
  This feature is sorely missed.
