Comment 0 for bug 824099

Oneiric Alpha 3 installed on this system. Under testing, one test is to plug in an external monitor and ensure that external video functions properly. On this EeePC, it does not. (See photo attached to this bug).

Once the external montior is plugged in, both the primary display and the external display are horribly garbled. The only thing that exists on the screen that's remotely readable is the panel at the top. The rest of the desktop area is just a mess.
