Hello.
I have a strange problem.
I recently had dual screen working with DVI but I couldnt get my lock screen to work.
When I locked the screen my laptop went black and the programs on the other screen was running, but you could not do anything.
I didnt get the enter password up.
So I wanted to see if it was only a DVI problem, so I switch the cabel and using VGA now, and now dual screen doesnt work(!)
The only screen which is working is the other screen. The laptop screen is black, however the lock screen now works(!)
I think the problem might be in my xorg.conf file, but I am not sure.
I am running
