Hi

I don't have really good results with this new version on my laptop.
The laptop display isn't detected (it is detected in xorg.log, it sees
its resolution, but it's saying it's not plugged in), and the TFT
screen I plugged in didn't have the right resolution available.
Laptop : Acer Aspire 1692, display 1280x800
Graphic card : ATI Radeon Mobility X700
External Display : LG Flatron L1750s, 17 inches TFT screen, max res 1280x1024

I never succeeded in having the external display working properly with
the 6.6 driver, but I didn't really try anyway :)
So here is my xorg.conf (I tried with and without the MonitorLayout
that is mandatory with the 6.6 driver, but it didn't change anything
with the 6.7) :
# xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
