Hi,
It was no problem to set up my external monitor, which is a pretty old but functional Sony XDM-X93 (1280x1024). However, every time after I switch the external monitor off and back on again, the resolution settings for the monitor are lost and get reset to 1024x768.
Is this a bug or am I supposed to edit a config file additionally?
Thanks!
Grtz.,
