Hello

I have a user that is using an external widescreen monitor connected to his
docking station for his fairly new HP nc6400 laptop. He is only using the
external monitor, not both, and the external is coming through as monitor 1,
his primary, and the other screen is greyed out.

The screen displays fine, except for his deksotp wallpaper. For some reason
his wallpaper is still displayed at the resolution of his laptop screen, not
the external monitor. What's even weirder is that there is another copy of
his wallpaper underneath that is displayed as fullscreen, so that he actually
has two wallpapers, one on top of the other. This of course goes away when
the laptop is out of the docking station and using it's own screen.

Any Ideas?
