** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
+ It seems to be the multiple monitors KCM for KDE that is not working for
+ some cards. Most of the time, dual screens only revert to a display
+ clone on my i915 box, but last I checked it works with Nouveau on my box
+ with an older NVIDIA card.
  
- It seems that the modesetted version of the i915 driver does not support
- two separate displays, I can get only a display clone, no matter what I
- try in systemsettings. However in the non modesetted version it works
- fine.
- 
- I am trying this with the LVDS display, and a VGA cable monitor.  (I
- have no displayport  on this laptop, so I can't test the display port
- its showing.)
+ I tried ARANDR on my box with the i915 driver, and it was able to set an
+ expanded desktop.
