connection problem between computer running odp file and projector
Since changing over to Ubuntu from Microsoft, I have had problems in getting the projector to connect to the computer to screen odp presentations. The normal procedure is to make the physical connections, turn on the computer after the projector and then use F5 to help get the image on the computer screen and projector screen. Often it takes me a few goes, including restarting both computer and projector before it works - but I don't know then, why it has worked.
Usually after both computer and projector are turned on, the projector screen will flash up 'searching', then the Ubuntu logo falshes up for a second - followed by a blank screen. Even after waiting a minute or two both screens remain blank and no amount of pressing FN F5 helps. So I switch off and restart both computer and projector and after about the third try everything works fine - but when it is very frustrating. Any ideas on how to make it work first time?
