I have my laptop running at 1024x768 and my monitor (when docked) can
run at 1280x1024.<br>
<br>
The graphics on my laptop is :<br>
Intel 82852/82855GM/GME Graphics controller<br>
<br>
But when the laptop is docked, I cannot have a higher res than
1024x768. Even if I have to manually change the res every time I dock
and undock it I will do that, but at the moment, I don`t even have that
option.<br>
<br>
Can anyone help?<br>
<br>

all<br>
<br>
I have a laptop running ubuntu which runs great undocked, but when I<br>
dock the laptop, it doesn`t detect the new monitor nor the bigger screen<br>
res that its capable of.<br>
<br>
I have the laptop dual booting with XP, and XP detects the new monitor
<br>
and changes the screen res depending on whether or not I am docked etc.<br>
I have to use windows for some of the apps that I need to access but I<br>
prefer to run linux as a normal desktop, so any assistance would be<br>
great here.<br>
<br>
The laptop is a dell lattitude 505.<br>
<br>
ta in advance.<br>

Hi Mark,<br>
<br>
I had the same problem before with my inspiron 700m. Is the laptop and
the monitor running the same resolution? I fixed mine with 855crt, but
I had to run the same resolution between laptop and external monitor. I
dont know if it will work with your laptop though since I dont know
what videocard the Latitude 505 is running.<br>
