As a followup to this discussion .... I have installed (as they were not present) xbacklight and xcalib. No every time I reboot I get to see the display ok on the eee. I didn't have to adjust any setting it now just works? Also the dilemma with the two screens is solved by finding an error message saying the Max screen size has been exceeded 2048x1546 which is the Telly screen and the Laptop screen next to each other (contained in this virtual Square) so dragging the laptop display beneath the Telly puts the two screens inside this virtual square and I can rotate normal just fine. > > ________________________________________________________________________ > > > Regards > > Kevin Lucas > Minions Post Master(Sub) > A dedicated Linux user > /usr/bin/microsoft > Skype minions_shop > www.minionsbandb.co.uk > www.tearooms.minionsbandb.co.uk > FaceBook Minions_shop > Po House, Minions, > Liskeard Cornwall > PL14 5LE > 01579363386 > > > > -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
