Hello.<BR>
<BR>
I love ubuntu, but sometimes it just drives me crazy.<BR>
<BR>
Right now, I need to use a dual-monitor setup. Be it for my casual desktop usage, or to my projects and programs presentations with a slideshow. The latter is critical and that's why I'm here.<BR>
<BR>
So, after some Intel Drivers update, some programs started to work nicely, faster and beautifully. But it corrupted my Dual-Monitor Setup.<BR>
I don't know what to say, I'm totally desperate. I had to show one of my programs to my teacher using a projector, but with the dual monitor corruption, I called in sick today. I need to use the netbook screen to make changes on the program and the second monitor/projector to show the program working.<BR>
<BR>
I'll show some pictures, but I'm without a camera right now, so I'll use one china-phone that's hanging around here to take a picture. Sorry for the quality.<BR>

Both Monitors, you can see on the right of the bigger one the corruption I'm talking about.<BR>

Part of the primary monitor (LVDS) and an 'accessible' black area. <BR>
<BR>
It gets corrected when I disable Compiz, but I would like to use the Compiz with the dual-monitor setup, like I could before<BR>
<BR>
It wasn't like this before updating the graphics. It was plug-and-play, tottally working, with or without Compiz enabled. What might be the cause? Do I need to create a Xorg.conf file? Update something?<BR>
<BR>
Please help me =( Thanks<BR>
<BR>

Ubuntu Maverick, Intel 4500 Mobile HD. Projector and my Monitor are connected thru HDMI. Doesn't matter if I change the resolution, stays the same.<BR>
<BR>
-----------------------------------------<BR>
<BR>
I tested something here. I've set up the netbook (LVDS) monitor as the right one<BR>

This way, he's the one that becomes bugged, and the big one (now primary) works beautifully.<BR>
So, the left one will always work, the right one will have the problem<BR>
Placing monitors on top of another renders a black screen on one of them. Mouse cursor is still visible moving around even though the screen is black<BR>
<BR>
I'm lost here =(<BR>
<BR>
-------------------------------------------<BR>
<BR>
I've tried deleting my xorg.conf. No luck, stays the same thing.
