Problem solved.
The 'nv' driver in ubuntu isn't playing nice, I don't no what the
difference the "nv" driver is between Fedora and
Ubuntu but I couldn't get it to drive a externel LCD properly, no matter
how much I tweaked the xorg.conf file.
Fedora "nv" driver has no problems driving the external LCD on a Dell
Laptop. Both OS's are on the same Dell Laptop.
I had to install the "nvidia" driver on Ubuntu-7.10, that solved the
problem.
