More interesting information to report. If I start X using the laptop's display (no external monitor plugged in) and a laptop-specific XFConfig-4 file, I can then plug the external monitor in and get whatever resolution the laptop display is at. If I then quit X and try to start it again, I get a "no screens found" message and X won't start. Now I'm really confused. -Raj xfree86-list-request@redhat.com wrote: > Hi.
