I have solved the problem doing like this: after have installed Ubuntu 10.04 with external monitor i have installed: sudo apt-get install v86d
gksu gedit /etc/default/grub
change the line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
with:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset video=uvesafb:mode_option=1024x600-24,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap"
substitute the line:
#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x600
----------- gksu gedit /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
add ad the end of the file the following line:
uvesafb mode_option=1280x1024-24 mtrr=3 scroll=ywrap
then do: echo FRAMEBUFFER=y | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash
sudo update-grub2
sudo update-initramfs -u
then for see the cursor do what is suggested on: http://samiux.wordpress.com/2009/05/15/howto-via-s3-unichrome-pro-problems-fixed-on-ubuntu-9-04/
sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Add the following lines to the Section Device.
Option "PanelSize" "1024x600" Option "sw_cursor"
The final looking on the Section is :
Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Option "PanelSize" "1024x600" Option "sw_cursor" EndSection
