    Dual head working poorly under jaunty

    Hello,

    On my trusty but old IBM Thinkpad T42, I have ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]. Under intrepid, I used to issue the following command:

    Code:
    xrandr --output VGA-0 --auto --above LVDS
    and the external monitor's display would be configured to be above the built-in LCD screen's display.

    When I try to do that under Jaunty, the external display is garbled.

    I've tried to use Krandrtray or the System Settings --> Display, but there are no options there to set the external monitor's display above the built-in LCD screen's display. (An additional problem, when using Krandrtray or the System Settings --> Display is that after a while, the built-in LCD goes black).

    Anybody had similar issues?
Working...
