body: <p>I was successfully using <strong>xrandr</strong> to extend my desktop in my work place with this little "script".</p>
  
  <pre><code>#!/bin/sh

  xrandr --addmode VGA 1920x1080
  xrandr --output VGA --mode 1920x1080
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Everything was going well till one day that magically stop working. When I try to use it. I just get this message.</p>

  <p>The laptop display resizes in a strange way, but nothing happens with the extended monitor. </p>
  
  <p>I've restored gnome desktop default config. I changed the font config, I tried with other layouts and monitors, but always occur the same.</p>
