According to https://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Lenovo-ThinkPad-X220T-4298-2YG-Convertible-Notebook.60217.0.html that model only comes with 1366x768 screens. > If I start a second user (under Gnome) the internal screen resizes to 1024x768 > and I get an image on the beamer. Gnome is very demanding compared to other DEs. If GDM is still installed, removing it might help. Make sure to configure trinity-tdm as your display manager. I have lots of openSUSE installations with KDE3 or TDE, none on laptops, but several with dual displays available. None have ever done as you describe, and GDM is never installed. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
