snip
I can't swap, end for end or otherwise; there is no connector at the monitor end, it's connected permanently. Yes, I have a live Ubuntu 8.
snip just don't use such an old version if you try a live distribution, it's not going to give you any sort of Sandybridge support. Get ubuntu 11.04 (which gave me Sandybridge support otob) or OS11.4 live (which gave me proper resolution but a host of display errors; those can be fixed on an istalled system as described in "Ladislav's" thread that you mentioned earlier) P.S.: *buntu doesn't use xorg.conf.d approach so my guess is that there you need the obsolete xorg.conf to override X's autodetection, but for OS11.4 Felix's method should be preferred. /K.-H.
If you lose keyboard and/or mouse by making those changes, 10-evdev.conf and/or 90-keytable.conf in xorg.conf.d/ may need tweaking, but let's not address how unless necessary.
