hi,
I have tried the herd 5 in live cd and the issue is the same than herd2.
that is to say the screen tuns off !see my post... so if i want to correct
it i have to Put Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,AUTO" in the device section of
  etc/X11/xorg.conf ....
I heard about a patch but how it works ? i am still running on an edgy and i
am waiting for the stable release before installing feisty ! so meantime i
try each herd release.....

sincerely linuxboy
