This is with the latest (10/24) git version. Running on a Dell Inspiron 4150 laptop in dock with external crt. Lid is closed. I've forced the resolution to 1600x1200 because without it it tries to run at 1024x768 117.8kHz/146Hz which is small and out of range of the monitor. Monitor OSD reports 1600x1200 mode as 73.9kHz/59Hz.

Anyone? This is killing my eyes. Just installed version 6.7.196-2.fc8 but no change. Any way to force 85Hz in xorg.conf?
Although I think the problem is that X *thinks* it is driving the display at 85Hz, but it really isn't.
can you attach the output of xrandr? Does it help if you switch to another mode and back? xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1024x768 xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1600x1200 --rate 85 xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1600x1200 --rate 75
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1600 x 1200, maximum 1600 x 1200 VGA-0 connected 1600x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 352mm x 264mm 1600x1200 85.0*+ 75.0 1024x768 85.0 75.1 1280x1024 84.8 75.0 1152x864 75.0 800x600 84.9 75.0 640x480 84.6 75.0 60.0 720x400 70.1 LVDS disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) Switching to 1024x768 drives the monitor at 117.8kHz/146Hz. Switching to 1600x1200x75 drives it at 74.5kHz/59Hz. 85 73.9kHz/59Hz. So it doesn't appear to be twiddling the registers properly.
does VGA work properly when the lid is open and LVDS is active?
Created attachment 12939 [details] x log with lid up With the laptop out of the dock and the lid up, it drives the external monitor fine. Mode is 106.8kHz/85Hz as reported by the monitor.

I think bug 12913 and bug 13533 may be related. It seems pll 0 has issues that may be related to bios init.

should be fixed with commit: f3d2ec3a5ae61215c792018320158750e7aa937c
Works for me. Thanks!
After commit f3d2ec3a5ae61215c792018320158750e7aa937c, the display in my laptop's internal panel is heavily distorted.
This also resolved my issue. Dual-head is working fine now!
Seems fixed, closing the bug, reopen (and update buginfo) if you still have issue with lastest xf86-video-ati.
