[X-HW] External Monitor Problems

[Michael W. Sumbera]

Go into the Universal Access system prefs and "Switch to Black on 
White."  That will probably fix the external display, but get the 
internal one showing black and orange.  If so, then you probably need 
to get the ADC-DVI adapter replaced.

A work-around is to disconnect the display from the adapter as soon as 
it gets video, then just reconnect it.  Leave everything else running 
while doing this.
