Ubuntu Screen Res Issues

[Mark Menzies]

Hi all

I have a laptop running ubuntu which runs great undocked, but when I 
dock the laptop, it doesn`t detect the new monitor nor the bigger screen 
res that its capable of.

I have the laptop dual booting with XP, and XP detects the new monitor 
and changes the screen res depending on whether or not I am docked etc.  
I have to use windows for some of the apps that I need to access but I 
prefer to run linux as a normal desktop, so any assistance would be 
great here.

The laptop is a dell lattitude 505.

ta in advance.

Mark
