As noted here:
http://linux.overshoot.tv/ticket/84
an old CRT monitor died and I had to replace it with a LCD monitor.
I am impressed. It used to be that changing a monitor screwed everything up. I was expecting to have to boot with a live CD and change a configuration file manually. But on a hunch I still tried booting without doing anything and everything worked perfectly.
I am really pleasantly surprised.
What has changed? I actually tried to do a similar change on a #!Linux 9.04 installation, and the system couldn't boot into graphical mode. But it went without a hitch on Kubuntu 9.10.
I'd like to document this in the above web site: which kind of users can expect to experience problems in such a situation?
