flicker on projector from UBUNTU laptop
Hi -- I am running Ubuntu 8.04 on a Toshiba Satellite - can't get it to display on a external projector or on a second screen without flickering. Flickering is bad enough to make navigation all but impossible. Current resolution on laptop is 1280x800, I tried changing resolutions and it doesn't effect flickering. I have read through the other posts on this problem on others computers, tried adding in the code of last two lines in Monitor section below and it has not helped.
I have to boot with the external projector connected or it is not detected...no normal use of function key.
Here is the relevant section of my xorg.conf file:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Generic Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT,LFP"
Option "Clone" "true"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
SubSection "Display"
EndSection
Thank you for your your help.
