No external monitor with Fujitsu 810/Suse 11.1/Intel 945 GM
Just upgraded from 10.1 to 11.1 on a Fujitsu U810 with Intel 945 GM graphics. External LCD (through VGA port) worked great in 10.1, but doesn't work at all in 11.1. I enabled dual-head etc. in sax2 exactly as in 10.1, but no external LCD (tried three different ones) is ever detected in 11.1. All available updates have been installed.
xrandr showed that the external LCDs are being detected as "TV-1" and VGA is always listed as disconnected. The menubar config tool in GNOME shows two displays, but (oddly) the laptop display is listed as "Unknown" and the external monitor is listed as "Laptop." (??)
I went into xorg.conf and told it to ignore "TV" and "TV-1". Now xrandr doesn't list TV-1 anymore but VGA is still disconnected and the external monitor(s) still don't work.
Then, I went back to the original xorg.conf and tried again. VGA still disconnected, external monitor again listed in xrandr as "TV-1."
Tried xrandr --output VGA with various modes, no change. Also tried different resolutions for the external monitor, including just cloning at 800x600, no change. The Fujitsu has a "Fn-A" keyboard to toggle external displays; no change there either.
xorg.conf is posted below, without the ignore TV and TV-1 modifications. I noticed that SaX identifies the external LCDs as "EXT" but there's no section for "VGA" in xorg.conf. Changing "EXT" to "VGA" doesn't help.
Then I tried putting the following in xorg.conf:
Option "ForceSDVODetect" "on"
and that fixed the laptop display, so it's now shown as "laptop" and the external monitor shows up as "Unknown," but still no display on the external LCD.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! You can see that I've tried a lot of things and so far nothing has worked. fyi, I am fairly experienced with command-line Linux but not so much with X11. :-)
thanks in advance...
