Hello,
my problem:
Intrepid does no longer identifiy my mother's screen (Belinea 10 30 40) on a Intel i945 chipset and tries to drive it outside its frequency range which results in a black screen as the monitor turns itself off for protection.
I did create a working /etc/X11/xorg.conf but first, Ubuntu tries to autodetect the screen all the time which now results in an xorg error "device not found". After that, I get the emergency screen and when I click ok 3 times (for the low resultion Gnome desktop), I get in fact my perfect xorg setup in high resolution and flickerfree.
So my problem basically is: How can I tell xorg to use ONLY the config file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and not try to autodetect my screen?
