Could it be that this is the Problem?

The newer ati-drivers doesn't recognize the internal LVDS, only the primary DAC. I have a HP Pavilion zt3000 series notebook, too. I just tried ati-drivers-8.21.7, still the same problem. :( (In reply to comment #4) > I just tried ati-drivers-8.21.7, still the same problem. :( > 8.22.5, same story 8.21.7-r1 still got this problem I guess an ATI developer has been added to the CC list, so maybe the problem will hopefully be fixed by a patch or at least in the next release. ;) (In reply to comment #7) > I guess an ATI developer has been added to the CC list, so maybe the problem > will > hopefully be fixed by a patch or at least in the next release. ;) > Hope so BTW, 2.6.16 kernel + 8.23.7 still error Can the people this is affecting please post their XOrg.0.log as an attachment as well as provide as much identifying information as possible in the start of the log file to allow us to determine which laptops are affected.

Xorg.0.log
Same Bug; using Hp Pavillion zt3000 series w/ ati mobility radeon 9200.
LCD recognized as CRT. kernel version is 2.6.16-r3 (gentoo sources), xorg-x11 version is 7.0.0. Reproducible with every working version of ati-drivers with this kernel.
Options in xorg.conf / "Device" section, as you can see also in the log file, such as "MonitorLayout" or "ForceMonitors" seem to be completely ignored.
