I have an external monitor that is connected to my laptop via HDMI. I just upgraded to Natty and I can no longer redirect my video output to it using Fn+F8. How can I get my external monitor working again?

  • Hardware is a Dell XPS m1530.

It seems that I can twiddle with the nvidia settings and get configuration I am looking for, so I guess the real question is:

How can I get Fn+F8 to switch my video out between monitors like it used to?

  • Can you had some hardware information to your question? – Jorge Castro Apr 29 '11 at 13:05
  • This question should instead be filed as a bug report, and [as such](http://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/1317/what-to-do-with-questions-that-describe-known-bugs/) is off-topic, thanks!

That should help you if you have a nvidia graphics-card: Second screen detection
