I'm trying to attach an external monitor to my Acer Travelmate 2000 laptop, which has the above mentioned 9100 IGP chipset. The distro I'm using is openSuSE 10.2. What I want is a dual-head display with an external monitor and a laptop panel. Unfortunately, after I plug in the monitor, the laptop panel goes black and the image is displayed on the external monitor. I've tried to play around with SaX2 setup, Xinerama and stuff, but the panel is still black :-( I'm using "radeon" driver - fglrx doesn't install (the new driver doesn't support my card, the old one doesn't support Xorg 7.2).. Has any of you come across this kind of problem? I wonder if I should try downgrading Xorg to 7.1 in order to make fglrx work?
