    Does anyone else have sync issues with an external monitor on the x201? I've got an external monitor hooked up through the displayport on my ultrabase. When I dock the x201 and resume from standby, I get a wicked sync issue on the external monitor so that the screen is hardly readable. If I open the laptop screen and then close it again, the external monitor syncs fine. Is there a remedy to this?

    I have the same issue. The only temporary solution suggested by others was to disable power saving feature of GPU. Now my x201 does this less frequently. As far as I know, there is no real solution which is kind of weird since I presume many people should have this issue.
