Backup your xorg.conf:
- Code: Select all
$ sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
If you get a black screen, use Ctrl+Alt+F[1-6] keys to restore it by
- Code: Select all
$ sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
OK?
Let's try this. Change the respective xorg.conf lines to (if you have just ONE monitor, let Xorg auto detect it)
- Code: Select all
#[sisctrl] Set CRT1 device type
#Option "ForceCRT1Type" "VGA" #monitor on
#Option "ForceCRT1Type" "NONE" #monitor off
#[sisctrl] Set CRT2 device type
#Option "ForceCRT2Type" "NONE" #notebook off
#Option "ForceCRT2Type" "LCD" #notebook on
and
- Code: Select all

Logout your Lubuntu session to restart the Xorg.

EDIT 1:
Are you using sisctrl control panel to change the resolution of monitor? Just the Lubuntu menu won't work. You need to use the Sis Control.
Open a terminal and run
- Code: Select all
$ sisctrl
then you can select and change the resolution.
EDIT 2:
OK, I didn't post the How-To for the sisctrl control panel. Sorry. I'll make it to share in the forum later.
