From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: When running version 7, the LCD and CRT via a docking station worked flawlessly on my Dell Lattitude CPi. With 7.1, XConfigurator now shows no entry for X Server and refuses to sync the monitor, even though probe finds the correct video card settings and the monitor is recognized automatically. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start XConfigurator 2.Press OK for PCI Probe (Note - no X Server present) 3.Press OK for Monitor Probe for a monitor that is recoqnized 4.Press Probe and OK 5.Press Use Default (16 bits per pixel, 1024x768) 6.Press OK to test configuration 7.Watch screen disconnect and start to flash the power light, indicating no signal. Actual Results: The monitor shows no input signal and switches to disconnected state. Tried two monitor vendors, identical behavior (Viewsonic MB90, Proview 770) Expected Results: Should have shown sample GNOME interface Additional info:
XFree86 isn't quite mature for this sort of stuff. Try adding the following to your XF86Config-4 in the options section: Option "crtscreen" If that doesnt work, I need you to file attach using the link below, your: XF86Config-4, and your X server log.

Please supply the requested information.
It's been 8+ months without feedback or troubleshooting information, so I'm closing the bug report. If this problem still exists in rawhide in the XFree86 4.2.0 release, please attach 4.2.0 X server log and config file, and reopen the report, and I can try to troubleshoot it further. Thanks.
