           Summary: External monitor does not display proper resolution
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: thejinx0r gmail com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.97.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          Used kubuntu live cd, opensuse live, and compiled kde 4rc2 on top of ubuntu All 3 produced the same "bug"
OS:                Linux

When using kde 4.0rc2, either in opensuse live cd, kubuntu live cd or just ubuntu with kde installed on top,
it always creates the same bug.

I'm using a laptop. I have an external monitor hooked up when I'm at home. The problem is that it shows the proper configuration on the laptop screen, but shows the wrong one on my external monitor. My xorg.conf is properly configured.  Also, everytime I try to run krandr, it doesn't load. And then when I logout, i get a crash report saying Kwin has crashed and some other program as well.

I'm sort of new at this, so I would need to know where to copy/paste the error ports to/from.

Thank you.
