Alright, here's my issue. I have a fairly old laptop, a 2006 Dell Latitude D610, running Ubuntu 8.04. I need to connect a projector to it through a VGA connection and use it for presentations. It's in a dock, and the original laptop screen is broken, so it's plugged in through the dock to a DVI monitor. The actual VGA cord is certified working. When I connect the cord to the VGA port, it doesn't autoconnect, and it can't detect it in the monitor settings GUI. Any ideas?
