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
