I am unable to drive the VGA output. Symptoms include |
6 |
|
7 |
* Executing "xrandr" does not mention LVDS or VGA |
8 |
(and using --output VGA gives a warning that VGA doesn't exist) |
9 |
|
10 |
* Pushing Fn-F8 produces a "p" (the keycap of f8 shows in blue a picture |
11 |
of a laptop and a monitor) instead of showing the screen on the other |
12 |
display. |
13 |
|
14 |
The xorg.conf file generated by nvidia-xconfig (below) is fairly simple. |
15 |
I just added the module section at the end. |
16 |
|
17 |
Any help would be appreciated. |
