Dear All,

I am new to Ubuntu and I would like to have the experience of working on an extended Desktop environment with it. I have a Lenovo Y500 series laptop. I had installed linux in it using WUBI. As I could see that most of the discussions on Extended Desktop environment happen based on the graphic card, I used "lspci | grep VGA" and the result was:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

I have no idea of graphic cards and related stuff (and thats why, I wasn't able to follow up with many threads on Extended Desktop). Hence, it would really be great if you could give me specific instructions with respect to Lenovo Y500.

Thanks a lot in advance!
