So,
I had this behavior the day before I installed openSUSE 10.3 on openSUSE 10.2. It seemed to happen when I installed the Nvidia 100.14.19 Driver, which is the only one avaliable to 10.3 through download.nvidia.com/opensuse/10.3
The issue I have is, when my computer is docked (Dell D820), it does not output onto an external monitor without me opening my laptop, and doing FN + F8... The OS should detect that the monitor is closed, and send the video to the external monitor, this is how 10.2 did it, when I first installed.. Also same with 10.1
Here is my xorg.conf
....
Is it because I only have one monitor defined?
Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor[0]" VendorName "SEC" ModelName "FD161 154P2 LCD MONITOR" UseModes "Modes[0]" DisplaySize 331 207 HorizSync 30.0 - 82.0 VertRefresh 43.0 - 60.0 Option "CalcAlgorithm" "XServerPool" Option "DPMS" EndSection
I don't have a copy of my old Xorg.conf when it worked how it should.

Have you tried to dock laptot and than configure external monitor?
-- Regards, Rajko.
I am going to try to configure using nvidia-settings but why should I have to? Every other distro works, even opensuse 10.2 worked until the 100.14.19 driver was installed. To me, in an enterprise environment how is one to try to do these work arounds? To me this is something very very very trivial, I am sure many use docking stations and external monitors. Once I setup on Monday with nvidia-settings I will see if it keeps the monitor in xorg. Any body else have a thought about this?
