Hi Rogan,

I got the same response from someone on the Ubuntu forums, so I'm 
guessing you're right :)  I haven't had a chance to test it yet but I'll do.

I think I chose not the to the "advanced" config of the monitor when I 
did the dpkg-reconfigure, I wonder if that's why the info is not there. 
But the problem was there right after doing the default install too.


Thanks,

Rich
