Seth,

   Updated the Kernel following your instructions and the external
monitor came back to life, here is the uname output just in case:

anibal@collar-de-bolas:~ $ uname -a
Linux collar-de-bolas 2.6.38-11-generic #48~lp838181v201109011442 SMP
Thu Sep 1 14:55:16 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

   Thanks a lot for your support.

   The update manager is asking me to upgrade the kernel, I supose I
will ignore meanwhile.

   Do you recommend me to stick to this custom kernel build?

   Do you have an estimation when your fix (based in this test) will
be included in a new official kernel release?

   Again thank you, I owe you a beer
