Description Raman Kumar 2012-01-19 09:30:40 UTC

Hi,

i have the  issue with my dell E6420, fedora 15 installed with basic driver
only. 

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Device 0126 (rev 09)
(prog-
if 00 [VGA controller])
 Subsystem: Dell Device 0493

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
 Identifier "Videocard0"
 Driver "vesa"
EndSection


when i connect with external monitor not able to detect.


In same model i installed FC16 that perfectly work no need to install with
basic driver.

How i can resolve this issue in fedora 15.

current kernel 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686.PAE 

All above mentioned rpm already their, still external monitor/lcd not work.

Rgds,
Raman

You can't, the vesa does not support multihead and never will.  Use the intel driver.
