Ah! That could be it. Sounds familiar. |

I've never tried connecting an external monitor or beamer, but have |
| 13 |
you tried connecting the monitor, either commenting out the above line or |
| 14 |
change it to "CRT" instead of "DFP", and starting x? From my |
| 15 |
understanding, the problem is probably the driver trying to output, by |
| 16 |
default, to the non-existing beamer/extern monitor. Your fix |
| 17 |
effectively tells the driver to ignore all CRT devices and just output |
| 18 |
to the DFP... |

BOOK There is a theory which states that if ever anyone |
| 23 |
discovers |
| 24 |
exactly what the Universe is for and why it is |
| 25 |
here, it will |
| 26 |
instantly disappear and be replaced by something |
| 27 |
even more |
| 28 |
bizarrely inexeplicable. |
| 29 |
There is another theory which states that this has |
| 30 |
already happened. |
