Dear all,

Thank you very much for the tips. After a lot of struggle (and many,
many stupid mistakes)  I've  managed to get the dual monitor.
The only issue is that it seem impossible to get the screen resolution
right. The screen of the T61 is a  1280X800. The external  monitor is
a 19 inches  westinghouse L2046NV , that is  capable of 1400x 1050.
However  I am stuck at 1280*800 and the screen looks awful. Probably I
am making a stupid mistake.
My current xorg.conf:

 &gt; &gt; Unfortunately, it did not help. &gt; &gt; Below there is a copy of my current xorg.conf file. Strangely it &gt; &gt; recognizes the GM960, but this do not show up in ubuntu&#39;s &nbsp;&quot;screen and &gt; &gt; monitor&quot;.

 &gt; &gt; &gt; I don&#39;t know about Ubuntu (are you using synaptic, or the command &gt; &gt; &gt; line?), but if you run &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; # apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel &gt; &gt; &gt;
 &gt; &gt; &gt; it should complain about the lack of key, but install it if you &gt; &gt; &gt; insist. &nbsp;Or you could install first (I think) debian-archive-keyring. &gt; &gt; &gt; Or you could download the .deb file and install it with dpkg -i. &nbsp;The
 &gt; &gt; &gt; last option will not take care of dependencies for you. &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;However, Screens and Graphics still gives me &quot;vesa generic/ intel - &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;experimental modesetting...&quot; and no option for extended screen. I do
 &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;have 1200 X 800 resolution. Any suggestion? &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; Here I can&#39;t help much. I don&#39;t have a wide screen, and I don&#39;t use &gt; &gt; &gt; the GUI front end to xrandr. &nbsp;From the command line (as a normal
 &gt; &gt; &gt; user), try &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; % xrandr --query &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; This will give a list of available modes. &nbsp;In debian, xrandr lives in &gt; &gt; &gt; the package x11-xserver-utils. Maybe a stupid question, but did you
 &gt; &gt; &gt; restart the X server after reconfiguring? &nbsp;This takes more than &gt; &gt; &gt; logging out, you need to e.g. use CTRL-ALT-Backspace &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt; &gt;
