Thread: External monitor not detected and laptop display turns off
hello,
may common issue @ loss finding way of looking understand.
trying connect laptop external monitor, either using external main display or using both displays in extended desktop.
problem:
trying detect external monitor, trying switch between displays, booting external monitor plugged result in following:
1. external monitor remains on standby
2. laptop display turns off
3. can't revert , laptop display have hard shut down (i think in cases ctrl+shift+delete & return worked)
so, how attach external display , either switch between laptop , external or use both?
dell latitude e4310
ubuntu 10.10
installed 10.10 deb after fresh install of 10.04. ironically, had because in 10.04 use external monitor...
many thanks
