Default Cannot connect to laptop/ Desktop Fine???

Sometimes I need to connect remotely to my laptop. The
only problem is that when I disconnect from this machine,
I can not get the display back. They only way for me to
get back on to the machine (while sitting in front of it)
is to reboot it.

Unfortunately this is a known, but difficult to debug issue...

One suggestion is to update your video driver (if you can) to a later
version...

It is a Dell Inspiron 1100 with the Intel chipset and the
latest video driver.

Got it fixed. Went to Intel's site and used their driver
instead of Dell's.
