Whenever I try to connect my Lenovo G570 with Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit to a Projector, it gets detected, but the display on both, the projector and on my laptop keep blinking continuously making it unusable. Even the focus of the screen shift from one workspace, that is, i am able to view two halves of workspaces.
Laptop Specifications: 2nd Gen Core i3, 4GB RAM, AMD Radeon Graphics
I have ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (**experimental**
beta) installed, but the status displays: "This driver is activated but not currently in use."
Here is a screenshot:
Should I remove it and try finding some alternative driver? Is there any software to correct it? Or is it a completely different problem??
I face the issue with the Unity environment. I have GNOME environment also installed but i haven't tried connecting using it. I'll try that and update on the question.
