unable to clone external monitor debian 8.3
thinkpad e550, acer al2216w 22" monitor, vga external output, debian 8.3 with xfce or gnome.
i also have win7 & ubuntu 14.04 on this & they both see the monitor & work ok.
cant seem to clone external monitor in debian.
i get 2 black screens unless i unplug the external monitor. actually the acer is grey/black with a mouse cursor i can move around but can do nothing with the mouse. the laptop has nothing on screen. this is true in both xfce & gnome desktops.
below is output of xrandr:
