HP LP2475w setup display setting Ubuntu

I got a new monitor at work, the HP LP2475w and I installed it to work with my Laptop compaq nc6000 with my Ubuntu UNIX installed.

The first problem was that the monitor has no drive software available. I used the command:
sudo displayconfig-gtk and selected setting: Plyg and play. This is not nessesary when Ubuntu finds right settings by default. I use a DVI to VGA cable to connect the computer.

Next I started the Screen Resolution program. First i set up the HP monitor to be turned on to full resolution.


To close the Laptop screen just set setting to "off".



Apply and close the program and then the setup was complete. Works perfect - the HP monitor is installed. Just be sure to activate the laptop monitor again before you open the lid...

Winner American Idol 2009

College student Kris Allen has won the eighth season of “American Idol”.

The 23-year-old from Conway, Arkansas, was a dark horse when the top 13 contestants were announced earlier this year.

I think the originality and the high pitched sing stile that Adam Lambert stands for is not reddy for America, jet.

Strong season on Idol.

As a viewer from Sweden, I watch the episodes of Idol from files shared on The Pirate Bay. I have seen all episodes now, and the contesters are very good.

The first thing that struck me most was the first audition by Alexis Grace. She had a very good audition and she was remarkably like a young Dolly Parton. And scanning the Internet after that there was a lot of loggers out there with the same opinion. And as Dolly is the grandmother of all country music I only hope that young Alexis can get some good music going too. Maybe not like the grandmother but more contemporary music.Not that I hate country but.. you know.

Other contesters like Danny Gokey and Lil Rounds are some of my favorites. Not forgetting Noop-dog. Go dog.

Well thats some of my favorites and anyway this season is worth watching as all seasons. The drama is mostly at the judges table anyway. As long as Simon is in the show it will be entertaining.
